Contributor Bio(s): O'Hearn, Darcee: - I live in a small riverside city in the West Kootenays called Trail. My home is nestled at the foot of a forest in British Columbia and here I live with my amazing family, an array of pets, and a thirst to live a green and organic life. I began my life cleaning teeth and realized soon after that dentistry was not the field for me. I enjoy hiking, camping, canoeing and learning as much as I can about our natural world. I have always enjoyed writing but it wasn't until I met an elder who lived in Fort St. John when I started seriously pursing my dream of becoming a successful author. This elder encouraged me to write down the stories I would share by mouth and so began the series, "Legends of the Forest" I received the "Richard Carver Award" for the best and newest upcoming author.
