Five of us attended write group yesterday at the Book Loft...Leita had reserved the table in the back room and Mary had added another leaf to give us more space...The smell of coffee drew us in and several ordered their choice of drinks...I chose to sit in a spot where I could see out toward the main door...All of us took turns reading at our "semi private" table, while a steady stream of people came in to order coffee, then sat down to their own tables and conversation...I felt like we were always on guard, keeping our voices down, quieting our laughter and wondering who could hear what we were saying...Not that we have any big secrets, just like to keep it within the group!
We left there and met again across the street for lunch at the "Cloud Nine Bakery", another possible venue for our "Write Group"....On this particular day it looks like a better choice... More space, away from the cash register, not as much morning traffic and warmer... Although I'm a little concerned that the smell of donuts, apple fritters, bismarks and eclairs might be our undoing at 10am...Personally I don't think it is worth it, for "goodies" that are all mixed from the same sack, made into different shapes and fried in deep fat and have that "cloying" bakery taste!...Most days I will be able to pass....
