Legends of Salhadun
The Selkie Prince
Since the birth of my daughter in 2014, I've been working on The Selkie Prince, the first book in my middle grade fantasy trilogy, Legends of Salhadun. Set in the Orcadian Isles, (based on the Orkney Islands of Scotland) The Selkie Prince features identical twins, selkies, longfins, and talking otters.
I'm currently sending out query letters to editors to find a home for The Selkie Prince.
