Heather Cole

Heather Cole

Hi, I'm Heather, an English lass with a Scottish name who likes to call the whole world her home. I’m actually a rocket scientist, astronaut and trapeze artist, but since my family and friends all think I’m a copywriter, we’ll maybe stick with that for now! You'll often find me curled up in a castle with a weighty historical tome and a glass of rhubarb gin, truly believing that I was a princess in another life. I'm a huge fan of cowboys, jungles and blueberry muffins, but prefer to steer clear of dogs, sun loungers and public transport.
