About Uncharted Waters: A Selkie Story:
I met Aveny in the deserts of Utah. It was an unlikely place to encounter a selkie, but life’s strange like that sometimes, especially when you’re on the road. We traveled together to Western Washington and along the way, she told me her story, which I later wrote down here.
It’s a tale (or “tail” if you’ll forgive the pun) of adventure and self-discovery. Perhaps just as importantly, it provides a rare inside view of modern day selkie life, which is quite different from the old selkie legends to which we are more accustomed. I am hopeful that this account may help shed some light on this largely elusive and remarkably unique population.
