Heather branched out from the traditional sports reporting and writing by doing something else: Writing non-fiction children's books. She worked with an editor at Red Line Editorial, a colleague who pitched the ideas for the series.
These book series, geared toward children in elementary school or middle school, have a few books within them. From the titles provided, Heather chose the ones she wanted to write about. The work consisted of book and internet research, and breaking the writing up into chapters based on the topic. Most of the books were published through Abdo Publishing and are available for purchase in a hardcover format. You can also check out the list of books on Goodreads.com. |
