#WritersCoffeeClub day 24: Do you have a writerly "third place"?
Depends on your definition. A lot of people take "third place" to include for-profit businesses, but I believe those aren't actually legit according to the original definition.
That said, I do a fair bit of writing at Oldies izakaya in Japan Village, Sunset Park, Brooklyn. It's kind of a "third place" for me to write in. Also North Pole Pub in Park Slope, Hollow Nickel in Boerum Hill, and sometimes Mo's in Fort Greene.

#WritersCoffeeClub day 25: The vulnerability of sharing: what do you feel when a loved one reads your work? (pride? embarrassment? anxiety?) Definitely anxiety, until I start getting feedback from them. Then what I feel depends on what that feedback is. (So far, I've only had one loved one read any of my stuff, and they were *very* positive, so what I felt was relief and happiness.)
