This week on We Should Write, Lindsay steps into unknown territory with first time author Heather Ogden—a 23-year-old writer, fantasy world-builder, and quiet-force-of-nature. Her gift didn’t begin with a dream of authorship but with a kid chasing YouTube fame and accidentally discovering her purpose. An introvert who finds meaning in silence and power in imagination, Heather creates morally gray characters, emotionally charged worlds, and stories that ask the questions most people are afraid to say out loud. What started as amateur scripts became backstories, then short stories, and eventually full novels as she realized she didn’t want the spotlight—she wanted to build universes. In this conversation, Heather opens up about creativity, identity, and the unexpected journey of becoming a storyteller, all while honoring the people who helped her find her way.
