In the Company of Fairies: An Unconventional Memoir begins with a solitary walk in the woods, thirty years ago, when Lori Sweet encountered two mysterious orbs of light who identified themselves as fairies. But that was only the beginning of the story.

What unfolded in the months that followed sent the author on a supernatural journey of inquiry into mystery, memory, and meaning and how we live with moments that do not fit neatly into our understanding of the world.

Told through the story-weaving voices of a grandmother and granddaughter, Alma and Kaiah, this layered and reflective memoir moves between narrative, dialogue, and shared inquiry to explore the subtle and elusive dimensions of extraordinary experience, situating one woman's story within a broader human search for meaning.

The book includes:

- present-day reflections from the author

- an exploration of fairy lore and origin stories across cultures and folklore traditions

- a closing reader section with reflective questions and simple, embodied practices for connecting with nature and the unseen

- a resource list for deeper exploration

Blending personal narrative with folklore, spirituality, and thoughtful inquiry, the story opens into a world that feels both ordinary and enchanted, where meaning often reveals itself slowly over time.

Written for readers drawn to true encounters, the mystical, and contemplative explorations of the unknown. This is not simply a story about one woman's experience with the Otherworld, it is an invitation to all of us to remain curious, to see with the eyes of the heart, and to honor the unusual moments that quietly shape our lives.
