An Interview with Heather Lang

1) What genres do you write in and why? 

I dabble in science fiction and fantasy. I enjoy writing worlds without traditional rules. Having the ability to make it up as I go is a signature move.
 
2) Describe your writing style. 

I write adult style novels for people with learning disabilities and reading disabilities. I like to keep the terminology simple and understandable. I believe its important for everyone to be able to read something they will love.
 
3) What inspires you to write? 

Stubborn sheer will… Honest. I’ve written so many under a few different pen names now and I believe that I enjoy telling stories more than the responsibility of maintaining an image.
 
4) Who are your favourite authors? 

Mercedes Lackey has always been an inspiration. My father, Joel, had her entire collection. Reading was something we always had in common, and he saw a lot of her style emerge in my writing. She will always be my favourite. Mercedes Lackey | Penguin Random House
 
5) Tell us something unusual about you. 

I’m a full-on nerd. I still play Dungeons and Dragons several nights a week. I have the original set of books, First Editions. I gave them to my fiancée Derrick Smith as an engagement gift! (Look for the newest books from Heather Smith coming out next fall!)
