How to Keep a Shop Open
I’m looking at you, awesome shops that have recently closed. Crave Cafe. Magazines and Coffee. Cafe Nouri. Nighthawks.

Sure, each of these sites wants to sell you a book, but perhaps that’s what you need. When not drinking coffee or grinding away at my day job, I do improv comedy pretty seriously. How many books do I have on the topic of improv comedy? Over 25. And its not even my livelihood. Certainly, you can afford 3 or 4 books before you go and buy your massive espresso machine.
