Heather Durham

Heather Durham is a naturalist and contemplative writer exploring the science and mystery of internal and external landscapes, seeking meaning and solace as a feral human in the more-than-human world. Her first memoir, Going Feral: Field Notes on Wonder and Wanderlust, was selected as a Next Generation Indie Book Awards Finalist in Nature Writing, and her second collection, Wolf Tree: An Ecopsychological Memoir in Essays, won a Nautilus Gold Award for Memoir in Essays. Sylvan Crone: A Midlife Quest is her third memoir-in-essays, deepening into midlife existential questions and discovering new insights in the realms of folklore, feminism, ecophysiology, mental illness, and mysticism.

Heather holds degrees in psychology, ecology, and creative nonfiction, and lives, writes, works, and plays on the traditional lands of Coast Salish tribes in Washington state.
