Marilyn R Wilson
Published Author,Freelance Writer, Edito
BC, CANADAMarilyn R. Wilson is a freelance writer, published author, editor and speaker with a passion for interviewing. It all began in 2006 when the she answered a Craigslist ad from a NY magazine asking for story submissions. Two were accepted. The first live interview was life changing and Wilson has never looked back. With over 150 interviews now behind her, the love of interviewing is still as strong as ever. Whether through a random encounter on the New York subway or via a "one-on-one" interview with an internationally recognized artist, the goal is the same--to share the unique journeys of inspiring individuals. In 2007, this goal led the author to co-launch a successful, innovative magazine focused on professionals working in the fashion industry, paired with photography and illustrations by local artists. Since that time her work has been published in a wide variety of magazines.
Each interviewed offered pieces of gold - wisdom that Wilson is ready to pass on through writing and speaking. This began in earnest with the release of her first book in 2014- Life Outside the Box - which features mini-biographies on ten of her favourite interviewees. A second book - The Wisdom of Listening:Pieces of Gold From a Decade of Interviewing is due for release fall 2017. 2 more books in the Life Outside the Box series are now in development - a series she hopes will be an antidote for reality TV.
