Heather Holmes is a Lowcountry writer and poet, children's book author, and entrepreneur near Charleston, SC. She writes poetry, nonfiction, and picture books, self-published via her own imprint, which offers freelance services, such as editing.
She is a skilled web designer and SEO writer with a long history in digital marketing and publishing that began in 1997--when she was just a kid learning HTML. A true jack-of-all-trades, she is also an experienced tarot reader!
Her mission is to combat injustice to promote healing and trauma recovery and to raise support for social issues such as neurodivergence, chronic illness and disability, poverty, and the welfare of women and children.
Her latest release is a self-help book for kids, Wings for Your Heart: A Healing Journey, a picture book of affirmations for survivors of childhood trauma.
Ms. Holmes has an English degree from the College of Charleston and is halfway through a Master's in Digital Marketing. She is the founder of Tidal Lantern, Charleston's Literary Magazine, which spotlights local artists and writers from the South Carolina Lowcountry.
She lives with her two grown sons, three cats, a three-legged great dane, a ferret, a tarantula, an axolotl, a rabbit, and eight fish tanks. When she isn't arguing with sloppily-coded HTML and PDF editors, she enjoys playing video games and tending flowers in her little garden. She is a Leo.
