Heather Deveaux is a full-time freelance writer who works with clients all over the world from her home in New Waterford, Nova Scotia. Heather launched her career as a freelance writer within hours of losing her job as an executive director of a career college in Cape Breton. After the college closed, Heather decided she was ready to dedicate her skills and abilities to her own business and has been successfully growing her freelance writing business ever since. She’s recently branched out to create The Freelance Writing School, in which she’ll teach others how to start and run their own freelance writing businesses in rural areas across Canada. Heather holds a Master of Adult Education degree and taught herself how to use WordPress when she realized she needed a website that was fully customizable that she could build when she wasn’t working on client projects.
