For years, my best friend and I sometimes stopped at bookstores en route to coffee shops and bars. I thought he liked to do that because he was a prolific writer and the places where we stopped often sold books by him.
One day, I was about to walk into St Mark's Books when he stopped me.
"Let's not go in here just yet," he said. "In fact, let's not go in here period. I hate going to bookstores with you -- it's like an alcoholic making the rounds!"
