Neil Paul signs a book of poetry A Slim Volume for fan Mrs. Huitema.

From one of our favourite poems, titled Raspberries:"'Where do words come from?' she asked... Do they grow on bushes like this?/ Only recently having tasted the delight of words,/ She had concluded they were alive and gave life."

College of Two ~ In a small business, family and friends really count! Two individuals who have supported us, encouraged us and have always been there for us are Faye Farrance and Lois Marlett. Lois' published books and promotional profile and photograph can be found in the local authors section. A retired principal, she lives in Cayuga and writes extensively about her travels and adventures.

Faye also lives in Cayuga and is our wonderful staff when we cannot be in the store. She knows and understands the importance of a small business being open the hours posted ~ a commitment that we take seriously. Faye's business background, along with a sunny personality, make her a perfect book-lady.

Customers enjoy and welcome the College of Two: left to right: Faye and Lois, two of our resident conversationalists and FASCINATING PERSONALITIES. We learn from them every day.
