Writing challenges, online courses, and professional training to help wild women writers find their voice and manifest a personal and literary heroine's journey.

I'm a daily writer, on a heroine's journey, questing for ways to heal myself, the Earth, and our culture.

​Hi! I'm Heather Jo Flores.

​I'm the author and founder of ​Food Not Lawns, and the director of Permaculture Women's Guild. 

I specialize in Writing the Heroine's Journey, and in helping writers, designers, freelance ecopreneurs, and creative artists use ecological principles, combined with a committed daily practice, to design projects that succeed. Read more about me here.
I write essays, books, short stories, songs, and curricula, and have two blogs:
This is my personal blog for women writers. Personal essays, ecofeminist philosophy, tips and tricks for freelance success.
Our collaborative blog on the Permaculture Women's Guild website. Organic gardening, ecological design, social permaculture, and a diversity of guest writers.

My Books:
​

Naked Lady Soup, an ecofeminist novel about sex, dancing, and agriculture.

Food Not Lawns, How to Turn Your Yard into a Garden and Your Neighborhood into a Community

This was my first book, published by Chelsea Green in 2006. Right now the book is out of print and undergoing a massive update and revision, due sometime in 2021.

Meanwhile, the full text is now available for FREE, right here.
