Swing by Bill Ectric’s Place. Have cup of coffee or a cocktail. Read a book, buy a book, talk about books, and maybe even get booked, if the thought police get shook. Hang out with authors and artists, reporters and radicals, columnists and characters, poets and punks, musicians and more. Bill and Sonya live upstairs. At closing time, you don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here!
found your place via red lemonade…like it. will add to my blogroll.
hi bill,
found you via your comment at litkicks.
i’ve been dropping in there sporadically over the years but suddenly, in the past couple of days, it’s been fecund for me. claudia’s a joy to discover and now here you as well. i probably didn’t search there hard enough before, i imagine, though i thought i had. i’m glad you left your url.
