Legend of the Kelp Maiden
by Deanna K. Kauzlaric Kieffer
Do mountains have personalities? If so, what are they and what are their origins?The Legend of the Kelp Maiden tells of such things in prose that paints the mystical paths of the sea and sky with a broad brush. Inspired by the beautiful Olympic Mountains of the Pacific Northwest, the story begins in Hood Canal among the Kelp beds of Dabob Bay marking real places on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State. It involves young dreams and wishes and explores love and constancy with out-of-this-world consequences. Once you learn of the secret of the Kelp Maiden, you may never think about Kelp, Mountains, or the Moon quite the same way again.
