This is a dream. This will not be your average bookstore. I will sell used and new books. I am not going to exclude any genres. I will not discriminate against anyone. My children with level three autism are my inspiration for my vision. My bookstore will be a safe place for all people to be their true authentic self in a place where discrimination is not tolerated. People of all ages can come and share in the love of books and reading and learning! If I can get the funding and the space, I want to bookstore that offers an enclosed, locked, elopements proof childrens area to allow parents and caregivers of children to have a shopping experience they haven’t had since before they became parents/caregivers to children with special needs. Beyond the sales of books, I will also offer book clubs/groups. I will eventually get licensed to sell prepackaged food, fresh food and drink made on site, and sell alcohol. Myself and a lot of my friends and coworkers would love a bookstore that offers adult book groups with alcohol. I know I would love to sit with like minded people, share the love of books, and sip on an alcoholic beverage. There will be a two drink limit and verification of a designated driver to participate. I also want to showcase local small businesses. I plan to have monthly spot lights on Indie authors and other authors that are not famous, yet. I have a growing list of services I want to offer. It keeps growing as people from my community provide ideas and suggestions! I want this to be a bookstore that is a benefit and positive influence on the communities I would serve. This will be a safe haven and gathering place for all people to share in the love of books, reading, and learning in a nonjudgmental and understanding environment.
