Julie Salmon Kelleher- The Sea-Glass Shore

A midlife selkie tale set in an alternate-Bellingham. When Jack, folklorist, meets half-seal Rona, she puts aside her sealskin to live as his human wife. Jack knows all selkie stories end the same: the seal returns to the sea. But could understanding a troubled family past be enough to change it?

Julie Salmon Kelleher grew up in five different towns in Washington State, and currently teaches in the Honors College at Western Washington University. Granddaughter to an Irish lawyer, an English teacher, a farm wife, and a logger turned dairyman, she lives with her family over the hill from Bellingham Bay, within hailing distance of the Chuckanut Mountains.
