| Introduction | Karen is a Heathen guerilla resisting a Judeo-Christian culture; bi-textual, and polyformistically perverse. Her writing lurks on the borders of fantasy, historical fiction, romance, and theology – yet owes allegiance to none. It crosses conventional genre boundaries at will. Her current work is the result of over nineteen years of shamanic practice and studies in transpersonal and archetypal psychology, thirty years of historical study and early-European material culture reproduction. Karen Engelsen is the former Managing Director of an environmental non-profit, and currently maintains the world's largest directory of 'green' goods and services for the Organic Consumer's Association. An avid cultural analyst, she has written articles for EdgeLife, TC Wellness, and TC Daily Planet. Ms. Engelsen provides developmental and substantive editing services for professional speakers, assisting them to translate orally delivered workshops into written media designed for the mass market. |
