Synopsis: A Grrls' Orca Tale

This novel will be based on a true story from my life about doing field research with killer whales, a.k.a. orcas. It's a grrl adventure story with mystical components. But I suspect it will also wig out into unknown humor territory as the intense month-long process kicks in.

Don't know if this counts more as Literary, Young Adult (YA), Spiritual, Adventure, or Fantasy. Mayhap this will become clearer as the work progresses. Or maybe it's just genre-transgressive.
