About Me

Heather Fishwick is a writer of middle grade and young adult fantasy novels, represented by Lynnette Novak at The Seymour Agency.

She studied English and Latin literature at the University of Warwick, and recently returned to student life (long distance) to study for a master’s degree in Creative Writing for Children and Young Adults. She currently lives in Northamptonshire, England, with her husband and two children. She has been a school librarian and a secondary school teaching assistant, but currently works for a small primary academy trust.

She has been a Wattpad Star since 2019, where she posts everything from short gender-reversed fairytales to dystopian stories about direct democracy and a verse fantasy novel where the stakes are sky-high.

In 2020 her gender-reversed Snow White retelling, Mirrored Snow, was long listed for the Write Mentor Children's Novel Award, before being selected for the 2020 Write Mentor Program, working with Marisa Noelle.
