Author Reading Marilyn Frey - Humboldt

Join author Marilyn Frey for a reading of her memoir Reflections in a Farmhouse Window: A Prairie Memoir at the Wawak Public Library, followed by a discussion of the book and the writing process.

 

Marilyn Frey is proud to say that she has lived in Saskatchewan all her life. She is a true prairie girl who loves Saskatchewan's 'living skies.'

 

After retiring from leadership roles in the financial services industry, Marilyn eagerly pursued her true passion—writing. She had wanted to be a writer since she was twelve years old, and now, finally, in retirement, she could realize that goal. When Marilyn isn't writing, she's reading.

 

Marilyn's debut memoir, Reflections in a Farmhouse Window: A Prairie Memoir, offers a unique perspective on prairie life. Marilyn's heart-warming memoir draws you into a much simpler time in the 60s and 70s, growing up on a farm in central Saskatchewan where hard work and discipline helped develop a strong work ethic and character. Marilyn believes the complexities of life are the basis for great stories, ones to be told and shared.

 

Marilyn and her husband reside in Saskatoon, close to their family.
