I was your typical author wannabe, wanting to write the great American novel, but never quite getting around to it. Instead, I spent forty years reading novels and dreaming about writing one of my own.
Then one day, my niece shared her story with me. It was called The Bookshop Mystery. It was loaded with mystery and magic and hidden spaces. So I made a proposal to Laura to team up. Embellishing Laura's plot, we dreamed up some extra characters added some new scenes and worked on dialogue to bring the characters to life.
