About The Book

A Familiar Shore


This book is the story of Sea and her child Rain, her journey as a poet and writer, and her battle with cancer.


Sea chronicles her healing journey as she meets Raven, a woman by the sea in Tofino, and a medicine woman of the Stolo people.

The Minstrel and Wen are a traveling musician and accompanying preacher with a ministry to the Downtown Eastside. Eventually they will come to Mission and meet the First Nations in all their ceremony at the longhouse. Will this be a prophetic moment when heaven touches earth? We wait to find out what role twelve nations will play in this waiting for the healing.
