Heidi Sands Biography

I am a freelance writer and artist living in New England. I have articles published in Woman's Own Magazine, Parentguide News, Our Journey, Franklin Publishing, London Press, and newspapers. I have poetry published in Womankind Anthology and Our Journey. I have five poetry books published at Amazon.  A series of three Nature Poetry Books titled, One With Nature in New Hampshire, Dreams With Nature and A Walk Through Nature With Heidi Sands.  Another poetry book titled, Hope - with positive inspirational affirmations and a love poetry book titled, Angelic Butterfly filled with 100 Love Poems.  All these are available in paperback.  Some available on kindle.

I like to paint landscape and wildlife oil paintings. I have an art gallery that I open Spring - Fall.  I am also a musician and play piano with over 100 songs written and recorded. If you would like to visit my creative website, please go to http://creativecallings.jigsy.com.

 I fully enjoy this wonderful site and thank everyone for your support here.

Oh no, Heidi! I hope this can be rectified. I haven't looked over all of my poems yet. I am having a problem as I work on my contest. I do not see anything in the winner's list at all which I've moved forward and will not be able to put them in the orders of placements :/ I only see the poems up to round two. There are still ongoing glitches occurring, I hope they are fixed soon.

My song I put in called Spend some time with me, a collaboration ..is not there on my end. GONE. Recorded with MP3 music recorder on phone. It always showed until this happened. ! Administration: please tell us why the site went down.

I date all my poems. Poems from 2016 have no dates, back and forth.. Selective. Some do and most do not. From 2017, they are dated. The beginning poems , from when I came to this site are missing on my end still too. This is happening.

That would not have been affected by the recent server crash. Information in the database would not be changed; especially specific info like that.

We do not see any poems missing and audio uploads are still there. Please send us a link to the poems where you see the recorded music missing. If it's a link to an external website, we can't control that.
