Several weeks ago Jan and Laine interviewed me for their podcast Gifts of the Wyrd. We talked about Vanatru, and what makes RedWood Vanatru what it is.
My interview is up now! Go listen!

–Ember–
My name is Ember Cooke. I serve the Vanir - Freyja, Freyr, and Their kin - as a priestess, minister, teacher, bard, artist, medium, and witch. Or to put it the Heathen way, as a gythia, galdrakona, and seidhkona.
My personal practice is more diverse, as the Vanir have lead me into cross-training, interfaith work, and counseling for the wider Pagan community as needed. My friends and allies may span the world, but it is the Vanir I love as family. -E-

I’m part way through listening to the podcast but your blog was mentioned so I came to find it while it was still uppermost in my mind. Really enjoying the interview! Thanks!

Alas, no. Off the top of my head I can’t even remember any individual Vanatruar in the Seattle area but I’ll ask my social network for you. -E-
