Save My Writing Spot!

Okay, gang, I rarely do this, but our little town has lost two of its three coffee shops recently, including the place with the chicken salad sandwich and the pickle.

The lone survivor, Davenport & Winkleperry, is my primary writing spot, and by “primary” I mean “They’re awesome and also I have to drive 45 minutes to get to any others.”

There's a reason why Seattle has so many coffeeshops -- the nine-month-long overcast (barely an exaggeration) makes it really hard to get out of bed in the morning.

Some of us can manage without the light, and others of us bask in its overcastiness. XD

I know, it's a very real problem for a lot of people. Personally, though, I love it.

A hip local coffee place is a fine, rare thing, especially given the number of Fivebucks out there. Our local place is also a restaurant, and has some live bands and other nifty things. We had another, but that one started declining badly, turning into a real dive of a place, where disgruntled teenagers would hang out when skipping class.

...I don't suppose you'd do a benefit art auction?

(Also, alas for the place with the chicken sandwich and the pickle! I feel vicarious pain.)

My sister lives near you and adores your gardening column. I shall inform her forthwith to rally the troops. Let me know if the crush of new customers interferes with your Muse.
