Hi, Fellow Bibliophiles!
Today I’m in stunning Anacortes, Washington State chatting with Brandy Bowen from Watermark Book Company and local author Kathleen Kaska.
Watermark Book Company is a locally owned independent bookshop in the heart of beautiful downtown Anacortes, where they’ve been since 1989. They sell new books—bestsellers, old favorites, classics, and other book-related miscellanea. They also carry Theo chocolate, made in Seattle from organic fair-trade beans. Watermark Book Company is now owned by Brandy and Ben Bowen.
Kathleen Kaska graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in physical anthropology and taught middle-school science for 25 years. She was a staff writer for AustinFit magazine from 1997-2002, and her articles have appeared in Cape Cod Life, Marco Polo, Agatha Christie Chronicle, Texas Now, and Home Cooking Magazine. Kathleen is the author of six fiction and 5 non-fiction books.
