About the Author
Heather Nicole Gifford's poem Off the Pier was published with Leviathan, in the April 2020 edition.  She was featured in the Voyage Denver Magazine for the writing of her novel, Crystal's Hole Heart.

​At a young age Heather was not excited for writing nor reading, it wasn't until a middle school assignment to write a poem sparked her interest. She loved having the freedom to express the feelings from images viewed and projected them for others. Writing was tucked away in the back of her mind, but never at the forefront.  It was all about reading at the time.

Now with life experiences and a pen to guide her, Heather is busy writing poems, flash fiction, and a novel - which will be published in 2022.
