"I was twelve and feeling haunted by the chirping crickets at night, my signal that the start of school was near. That's when Ginny Pye at the swimming pool told me she had just organized and restocked her desk with new notebooks and pens and was ready, even excited. The notion left an impression I'm still contemplating all these years later."
"I don't think I'll ever be happy to see summer end, but Ginny-who went on to become a successful novelist-was so right. A few new things, such as a wooden laptop tray, truly help ease the transition. And for these, I turn to Wms & Co., an online shop specializing in "exquisitely practical tools for your desk and for your life.""
