"Reading Heidi's work is an invitation to experience the wonder around
us."
Lucy Adkins, author of "One Life Shining: Addie Finch, Farmwife" (Pudding House Press)
"Heidi's poetry takes you out on a limb - but her words
won't let you fall, instead lifting you with wit and the steel
of truth."
Becky Breed, Educator
"Depth of meaning, precision of language; borne on a
foaming tide of words - Heidi’s work is a lovely bundle of
contemporary poetry that floats you across America’s
heartland so successfully that you are left longing to live
there and see such things as she does"
Ian Barker, Poet and Author
“With an ear for sound and an eye for
shifting realities, Heidi's poems are
beautiful in the mouth and revelatory in
the heart. Rarely does one juxtapose grace
and pain with as much precision as she
does, utilizing the smallest details of the
average day. Heidi's poetry is a doorway to
the Midwest, and a road map to the core
self.”
Kelly Madigan
"Heidi has exceedingly beautiful ears."
