Jane Galer’s background in philosophy has led her on a decades long quest for the feminine grail: the telling of woman’s story in a way that captures the power of the Pre-Christian goddess as an ideal for strength and equality rather than an anachronism of the New Age. Her poetry is a journal of this grail quest. Whether writing as a traveler connecting to Ireland as the land of her ancestors or exploring the honor and obligation of shamanic power, Galer is a poet in search of the Divine Feminine. Her poems revive a lost sense of power and authority to the woman’s voice, yet remain personal and intimate.
 This collection of poems ranges from shamanic songs, guides, and directives to love letters and poems of place, but through them all is the common theme of desire: erotic, personal, and powerful. The reader’s sense of growing intimacy with Galer’s journey brings with it an obligation to join her in celebration.

In this her second collection of poetry, Galer writes from the shadow of illness but also from the perspective of spiritual empowerment. As shaman and survivor she shares her awareness of the larger conditions of the earth, asks us as caretakers of not only ourselves but of the planet, to tread gently and always in the steps of truth as the ancestors would have wanted. Generous, forgiving, and thoughtful, her poems call us to assess our position in the universe and move forward. Spellbinding and demanding, Galer explores healing and destiny with a clear eye.

The Spirit Birds

A surprising tale of the struggle for survival, The Navigator's Wife is the fictionalized true story of the 1808 shipwreck of the Russian fur trade explorer ship Sv. Nickolai, aground off the isolated coast of the Olympic Peninsula, and the capture of its entire crew including the young wife of the navigator, Anna Petrovna Bulygin, by Makah native people. Anna's struggle to survive in alien and harsh circumstances, the choices she makes, and the insistence with which she masters her environment make her a heroine for all time. Galer's vivid prose has been compared to Joseph Conrad or Jack London. Fleshing the skeleton of the scant factual information, this true event combines adventure, little known history, and a cross cultural love story. "A wonderful literary adventure." Ken Owens, author of The Wreck of the Sv. Nicolai.

What the Raven Said

Two women met over a decade ago online in a writing class. They have never met in person, never spoken on the phone, by zoom or Facetime, but always kept in touch via email. They found themselves deepening their writerly friendship with a shared sense of humor, and respect for one another's work, daily confidences-during times of stress, times of joy, the mundane and the ridiculous-recounting every aspect of their very different lives. The singular yet powerful element of the pandemic shifted what was a general back and forth email friendship into a serious consideration of the narrowed world outside two writer's windows. As the letter-writers watched their own small world, they also began to wonder, taking more careful note of the daily habits of the wildlife around their homes. Questions arose, theories put forth; but always present was a sense of wonder and delight in learning the cycle of life offered before them. Whether as mundane as the canny squirrel on the wire, or as breathtaking and heartening as a new fawn being presented to the house, there was always something to write about. These moments soothed human fears and frustrations- the pandemic, the politics, the responsibility and guilt that burdens the human mind; but also gave space for humor, for deepening friendship, and the profound thoughtfulness and reflection that comes from observing the natural world. The singular yet powerful element of the pandemic shutdown shifted what was a general back and forth email friendship into a serious consideration of nature just outside two writers' windows. This is the natural history of a year of friendship in letters.
