My first novel is now a reality. “Souls Touching” was conceived in a Twenty-Minute Stories writing group in October of 2020. As with many authors, I put it aside and picked it back up many times. The last year, completion became a concerted effort. I’ve had the help and guidance of a wonderful friend, author and editor in Linda Gabriel, making the book a reality.
I’ve been intrigued by the Pomo Indian culture since the early 1970’s. The tribal members I’ve met through the years were impressive in their connection to nature, inherent beauty, and loving force. I am of Finnish descent, and I feel these two cultures combine in creating a spiritual story of acceptance, forgiveness and eternal love with dramatic otherworldly experiences.
