D.L. Heather is is best known for her award-winning poetry book, Life Interrupted.

Writing came into her life in her teens by way of therapy and the exploration of healing through journaling. Her writing is motivated by her experiences with childhood trauma, love, loss, healing, heartbreak, and self-discovery. Her words take many on a roller coaster of downfalls and rediscovery.

A private person by nature, she prefers to let her work speak for itself, in the way poetry allows her to. She hopes to inspire others and reinforce the fact that you are not alone.

When she isn’t writing in her studio, she enjoys travelling, reading, movies and gardening. Connect with her online @dlheatherpoetry

Having the courage to say what you want to say without holding yourself back.

When you are able to pour your heart out, when someone living in a faraway place reads it and says, ‘Hey, that happened to me, or I've felt like that too,’ when you establish a connection even with a stranger, what connects you with another person is the universal truth that you project through your writing- that, is the best feeling about being a writer.(less)

It’s all those feel-good hormones that exercising releases. Plus, allowing my brain to relax and rest from thinking as I exercise helps ideas form and grow.(less)

“behind her eyes lies a hidden mystery a mask she bears to disguise the pain



when she says, ’I’m fine” what does she mean? no, her pain didn’t just evaporate no, the surgery didn’t miraculously cure her her pain is 24/7 like the sun never truly going down rising and falling medication that doesn’t fix it this pain is bound to her even now as she's sitting next to you her smile never fading but you don’t want to hear the truth and she’s too sick and tired of explaining that’s why she says, “I’m fine”
D.L. Heather, Life Interrupted — A Journey Through Endometriosis, Chronic Pain & Self-Discovery

“Life is always either a tightrope or a feather bed. Give me the tightrope.”
Edith Wharton

“You can talk with someone for years, everyday, and still, it won't mean as much as what you can have when you sit in front of someone, not saying a word, yet you feel that person with your heart, you feel like you have known the person for forever.... connections are made with the heart, not the tongue.”
C. JoyBell C.

“One day, in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful.”
Sigmund Freud
