Meet Brenda -

I am a lifelong resident of Waterdown, where I live with my husband and daughter in a houseful of pets and books.

I was employed for many years as a journalist and editor at the Flamborough Review and currently work as a freelance writer and copy editor.

I have been a fan of Pickwick Books for a long time, not only because of the unexpected literary treasures you can find inside on any given day, but also because it is a local business that supports our community and spreads the love of reading. And, did I mention I like books?


I am excited to join the Pickwick’s team, and look forward to meeting you all!

Brenda

 

MEET OUR  STAFF MEMBERS 

PAULA & BRENDA!

Meet Paula-

Hello!

When I saw that Cheryl was looking for part time staff at Pickwick Books, I just couldn't resist applying. I have a full time job, but the romance of working in a beautiful, old-fashioned bookstore in my free time was very exciting to me.

 

Books have taken me on many adventures, introduced me to new friends and scared the living daylights out of me, but I've loved them all.

It will be such a pleasure to be surrounded by all those stories written just for us.

I am very much looking forward to meeting you, our customers, and making your visit to Pickwick Books an enjoyable experience.

See you soon and let's talk books!


Paula

"If you are a dreamer, come in,
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin."


"Come in!
 "Come in!"


-Shel Silverstein
