Marilyn Seigle

Picture

Belvoir, Virginia, where she delights family and friends with her prose and poetry. Boswell Bear Goes to School is Marilyn's second book, following Bunny's Busy Day, published in 2016. Her third title, Le Mouse Caper, is slated for publication with Belle Isle Books in 2019.

More About Marilyn Seigle

Marilyn has been writing for over sixty years, starting shortly after her 1955 marriage to army officer John Seigle. With so much writing experience under her belt, it’s amazing that Marilyn didn’t become a published author until the age of 85, when she published her first book, Bunny’s Busy Day, with the encouragement of family & friends. But Marilyn’s second book, Boswell Bear Goes to School, carries special meaning for her. Marilyn says she had to publish a second book because “one is a fluke, but two shows I’m a real author!” Marilyn’s long writing career is something to be admired!
