About Martha Farley
I have had several articles published in the Montreal Gazette as well as the West Island Gazette.
I also received the honor of being one of the writers published in a book that Mark Abley edited featuring many writers from the Pointe Claire area celebration the 100th anniversary of our city.
I have also had several poems published in anthologies.
Coming Home
The Aunts who lived in the house on Montrose were the rock of the family, welcoming and nurturing all members, especially those deemed to be in need of their loving care.
Our Own Beatlemania
The author recalls the revolution brought about by the Beatles and their unique musical sound, a revolution that was felt in her own home, in her neighborhood, and all over the world.
I’m A Dog Person
Sharing an apartment with a cat lover can coax a dog person to love the canine set even more.
Planes, Cabs, Boats and Buses
My husband and I just returned from a week’s vacation on the high seas. It was truly a wonderful holiday; celebrating the New Year on a cruise ship is, I would say, a highlight in my life. Getting there, though, was somewhat of a challenge.
The Kitchen Counter
Sweet memories of a mother at her tiny kitchen counter serenely whipping up Christmas goodies for family and frieds.
Life Stories
Everyone has stories, both joyful and painful. How they choose to reveal them will have a significant effect on all their relationships.
Everything but the Kitchen Sink
Martha Farley has a kitchen-sink kind of dream and wonders what it might mean.
Transforming the Aged
Those who care for the elderly are heroes indeed. They are the epitome of spirituality because they see beyond the wrinkles and smells and the things others find revolting. They see the humanity of the elderly, the raw beauty of aging, and embrace it.
The Body
It is cold. Colder than it is outside, it’s that awful cold that bites your nose, the air thick with the smell of death and filth. We are stunned; words cannot describe the scene we have walked into.
