Tonight, we’ll read the first half to “The Otter Opal”, a Snoozecast original. The second half will air in the next episode.

In this story, we shall meet two sea otters named Tumma and Nutsnm as they float above the kelp forest. The story is set along a coastline that feels quietly enchanted, where breaching whales appear like punctuation and the sea’s rhythm gently matches the internal tide of thought. We begin, as Tumma does, suspended between waking and dreaming, wondering where the day might carry him.
