About Elen Sentier
Mystery - Magic - Romance
I'm a writer, awenydd and Wye's Woman following the Old Ways of this land. British native shamanism is the ancient tradition of Britain. I come from a family of awenyddion - the name means spirit keepers. My mother's mother was a witch from the Isle of Mann and my father was a shaman and engineer. My favourite uncle could talk with animals; I’ve seen him call a wild hawk to his wrist and, many times, sat all night by his side under a tree watching all the night denizens of the wild woods. So I grew up in an environment full of everyday magic.
I've read fantasy and science fiction since I was a child, and started writing seriously some years ago. I love Roger Zelazny, Ursula le Guin and Terri Windling. I live in the Golden Valley, in the Black Mountains of the Welsh Marches between Wales and England - a magical place - and am working on my next novel, Oak Man.
