Writing Rural Saskatchewan: A Reading of Betty Ternier Daniels's "A Grain of Truth"

Wednesday, Feb. 15, 7:30 p.m.
Social Hall, Grace-Westminster United Church (505 10th Street East)
All are welcome

Betty Ternier Daniels will discuss writing about rural Saskatchewan and will participate in a four-person reading of  her one-act play "A Grain of Truth”: When Anne returns home to Bunchgrass for her mother's funeral, she learns that another person was complicit in her father's suicide twenty years earlier.  This discovery threatens the survival of the town's major employer and forces Anne to decide where her highest priorities lie.
