Heather Lyke

Heather M. F. Lyke (she/her) is a writer living in southern Minnesota. During the day, she works in education, says 'yes' to far too many things, and communicates in metaphor. In the evenings, she mainly focuses on the metaphors. 

Lyke has spent much of the last two decades teaching high school students and adults the art of creative writing; currently, she is also a staff writer for Third Eye Education. It's no surprise that her nonfiction focuses mainly on the art of teaching and learning. However, most of her work is poetry, which often stems from her strong sense of place: her poetry can be found in various literary magazines, anthologies, and on her website.
