Starting a New Chapter.

By Shelby Cox from the Castle Bookshop Mysteries
      by Essie Lang (aka Linda Wiken)

You’d think I had enough on my plate getting the bookshop that’s in Blye Castle ready for the opening day in May. That’s when the tourist season officially begins in the Thousand Islands, and the castle opens to visitors. That’s my new job, running the second Bayside Books location. I’ve been working at the main store in Alexandria Bay for the past couple of months, taking over from my Aunt Edie who’s recovering from a knee replacement. But really, it’s been a learning process while I worked alongside long-time staff member Trudy. She’s taught me the in’s and out’s of bookselling…and man, there are a lot of them! But I’m loving it.

So now the other major event we’re all preparing for is March 13^th when Trouble on the Books hits the bookshelves. Not only the ones at Bayside Books, but across the country. It’s the first in the Castle Bookshop Mysteries and my author, Essie Lang, has made the switch from writing the Dinner Club Mysteries (as herself, Linda Wiken), to a new setting, new characters, and a new name. She’s a former bookstore owner, so that makes her task of writing a bit more interesting for her and therefore, for me. But I’m still learning while happily schmoozing with customers.

It’s a tough job…but somebody’s got to do it…right?
