Sara

a Canadian saga ..............

          The time is 1916.  Sara is a 10 year old girl in rural Prince Edward Island. Roy is a 10 year old boy in mining town, Nova Scotia.  Through their eyes we see, feel and experience their childhood challenges.  We follow them through adolescence and their turbulent teen years.  We celebrate their courtship and suffer their lost innocence in the wedding ritual.  They take us through the Great Depression and share with us the frustrations, dreams and challenges they face in adulthood.  As parents they introduce us to their children.  This story appeals to all ages because  Sara and Roy hold up a mirror and ask the reader to recognize truth about the human condition for many Canadian families through difficult economic times. We witness love that does not come neatly wrapped and experience the quiet, sometimes desperate, drama of lives unfolding.

about the author . . .

          Audrey Austin was introduced to Wynterblue Publishing’s Wyn Lit writing competitions in June of 2008 and finds the monthly challenge an enjoyable motivator to do what she loves, simply to write creatively.

          Audrey’s true love is the novel and she has completed four manuscripts. She has also tried her hand at writing a one act play which met with local success in 2008. It was presented three times by ELATE performers in a dinner theatre format; once at Dennison House and twice at The Fireside Inn in Elliot Lake. 

          Audrey was a member of Write Stuff, a local gathering of writers and more recently she is the initiator of the newly formed and thriving Elliot Lake Writers’ Workshop.

          Creating websites is a hobby and she currently has eleven Homestead sites in which she enjoys journaling, poetry and article writing. Audrey is very proud of her two artistic daughters and her three handsome grandsons. She is happily retired and living with her best friend, Brian, in Elliot Lake, Ontario.
