But, there is one other dream I have. Being a budding writer, it stands to reason that I love to read. I love going into a bookstore and seeing the rows and rows of books. The idea of grabbing some coffee or a nice drink, and sitting down in a comfy chair with a good book, excites me.
It would have comfortable places to sit and of course a nice fireplace because who doesn't like to sit by a fire and read. It would also have a coffee bar and maybe sell some other fancy drinks and a few pastries.
But I would also add one other element. I would add art.
Throughout my life I have met many people who have an amazing ability to capture life in art. And like most writers, they do it more as a hobby than making a living at it because, let's face it, it isn't easy to break into the industry. Most of the artwork I have seen is absolutely phenomenal and I can't imagine how these people aren't world renowned.
So, that being said, close your eyes. Well, don't close your eyes really because then you couldn't read what I'm writing, but picture this: You walk through the glass door to artwork scattered on the walls. Cushioned chairs and a few small tables sit by a roaring fireplace. On one wall is a large picture window with tables and chairs. A little farther into the shop there are bookshelves lining the walls and a bar serving coffee and drinks and pastries. Four friends are sitting at a table by the window drinking coffee and chatting. There is a guy sitting by the fireplace reading a book and eating a muffin. A woman stands in front of a painting of some horses telling her daughter, "I think I need this painting."
Can you see it?
