H.K. (Heather) Rowe is a designer and writer from the Chicago suburbs. She has been writing and drawing since birth, and possibly in other past lives. As an avid reader, her stories are influenced by some of her favorite authors, such as V.C. Andrews, Jane Austen, Stephen King and Leiji Matsumoto.

H.K. leads a double life as well, working full time as a UX designer in the Chicago suburbs. Technology and Design are a few more of her passions.

In her rare free time she likes gardening, cooking, walking her coonhound, spoiling her daughter and kvetching with her husband. She is a huge advocate of LGBTQ+ and civil rights.
