About

Storyteller, with words and imagery.

Loves books, movies, horses, cats and generally all creatures (particularly the monsters)

From the mysterious land of Cornwall on the south-west edge of England, my name is Heidi and I love to write, draw and design. I also worry about the deteriorating state of the planet but have hope.
