Navajo Stories

Laura and Kathy White Rock live at the very edge of Navajoland, where few people visit. Their lives are mostly normal for young twins who reside deep in the middle of nowhere, except that on one particular day, a visitor changes their lives forever.They come upon a wounded crow on the road. It looks as though they cannot do anything for the poor creature, but as they carry it home, neither anticipates the journey that lies ahead. It is an adventure that will take the sisters into a strange land, hidden just behind their house. They will follow the crow through ancient sandstone monoliths, into an impossibly green valley guarded by a bear with obsidian eyes, and to a secret world where the crow will be able to cross into the next existence before the chindis (dark spirits) come to collect its soul. Laura and Kathy will have to remain strong, side by side, and face the evil that gathers at their feet, its hollow eyes fixed on the light that glows from within them.

Diné spiritualism asserts that there are two sets of beings once spirits finally emerge into this world - The Yellow World - after three other lives. There are Holy People, and the Earth People. It is the Earth People's divine responsibility to maintain health, harmony, peace, and prosperity on Mother Earth. Centuries ago, the Earth People were guided by the Holy People in an attempt to teach them how to properly treat their environment and sustain the planet through their lifestyles. All was considered. Mother Earth and Father Sky. Humans, animals, insects, plants - none were bigger or smaller than the other. If the Earth People's wholesome will faltered, the Holy People were tasked with the responsibility of righting the Earth People's wrongs. Putting nature back on its path. As part of the Holy People's last ditch effort at combating centuries of human transgressions, a select group from the newest - and possibly last - generation is tasked with finally getting those in power to listen. 8 Holy Children are born on Earth, led particularly by Nizhoni Flores who has been patroned by the Navajo God of communication, Bikeh Hozho.

Lees hier in het eerste hoofdstuk van mijn boek: "Mijn indianennaam was Blanke Appel", hoe het allemaal begon.

"Ironically, anxiety is what has kept me alive." • The Sequel to Eyeseffendee • It's been a year since the young coyote Astor left the Piedra, and he's been traveling along Eyeseffendee, battling monsters and searching for the demon who ruined his life: the Shifter. Astor has been searching to avenge his tribe, but when things have go terribly wrong in the Piedra, he realizes that something far more sinister than the Shifter is arising. <---•••---> Like it's precursor, Eyefifteen is based off of Navajo and other Native American legends, but I am not an expert on Native American folklore and have taken my own creative liberties. Along with these folk tales, I've drawn inspiration from my own experiences. Living next to Eyefifteen and near Eyeseffendee myself, I've been lucky enough to hike Zion, explore the cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde, gaze out at the Grand Canyon, and explore the rock formations of Goblin Valley. These places and many others have sparked my imagination, and I highly recommend you take some time to explore them (or any other natural wonder you have access to,) as well. 🏜
