Today, we're hitting the cobblestones of Charleston, South Carolina, unlocking the secrets of independent bookstores and the joy they bring to local communities. First, we're charmed by Polly Buxton, the passionate founder of Buxton Books, as she recounts how a single conversation with her (now) husband led to her dream of owning a bookstore. Polly, a resident cheerleader for local authors and issues, talks about the bookstore's unique book-based walking tours and important community conversations they host. Her love for books and Charleston is infectious!
Polly talks about the curation process at Buxton Books which is heavily influenced by the authors they host for events and stresses the importance of supporting newly published books and authors, and how this sustains the larger publishing ecosystem. She introduces us to a handful of popular local authors and discusses the distinct style of Southern writers. As the episode draws to a close, Polly shares her excitement about the Charleston Literary Festival, hosting author events, and discusses upcoming books hitting the shelves. So, settle in, sip that sweet tea and join us on this enchanting journey through the world of Buxton Books and book-based walking tours in Charleston, South Carolina.
