About Heather Ebert

When I was 8 years old, my mom took me to an electronics store to buy the newly released Macintosh from Apple. My grandmother had taught me to type on a Remington, but these new computer keyboards were much more fun. I plopped down in front of the Macintosh display model and wrote a short story—its subject I can\'t recall. Years later, Mom mentioned that the salesman showed my story to prospective buyers to help sell computers. If I\'d known, I\'d have asked for royalties!Ever since, I\'ve continued to write stories in a variety of forms, including sales and marketing copy, memoirs, novels and speeches. Today, I lead content strategy and development at Simpplr, a B2B SaaS company helping organizations elevate the employee experience. I partner across teams to create thoughtful, engaging content that connects with HR, IT, and internal comms professionals. I also manage our editorial calendar and freelance writers, keeping quality high and voice consistent across everything we publish.Clearly from my Macintosh story, I\'ve embraced emerging technology my entire life. Contrary to what some of the \"kids these days\" say about us \"older generations,\" I\'m a power user of AI for crafting content. That said, I\'m judicious about where and when I employ LMMs. Certain kinds of content can only come from my heart, intuition and creativity.My current passion project is a novel about two of my ancestors who were committed to a notorious state asylum about 20 years apart—and left there for good. I\'m committed to lifting them from obscurity and exploring the emotional truth of their experience.I\'m also the creator of You Are the Muse: A Guide to Intuitive Writing. This unique creative development course gives participants the keys to tapping in to higher intelligence and the essential steps to writing a compelling novel, memoir or nonfiction book.
