Hi, friends!

I’m Heather Hogan. I’ve been writing professionally for 15 human years (which works out to about seventy-eleven billion internet years). I’ve Geocities-ed, I’ve Blogger-ed, I’ve Facebooked, I’ve LiveJournaled, I’ve Xanga-ed, I’ve MySpace-ed, I’ve Tumblr-ed, I’ve tweeted, and now I’m Substacking. The mediums have changed, but I’m still just a women’s basketball-loving, TV-loving, animal-loving nerdy lesbian who wants to tell stories and make people laugh and feel loved. My earnestness remains undefeated by time or platform!

Cattywampus is a Southern word that means askew, awry, kitty-corner. You know, not straight. :)
