Should I ever buy a winning lotto ticket, I know exactly what I would do.

 

I would buy the closest house to Powell Books in Portland, OR  as possible.  Then I would spend all of my time wandering through the books.

 

I would enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of every story, every mystery and each adventure.

 

Even though I'd hear the clock ticking through my life's final countdown, it wouldn't matter, for I be exactly where I should be, doing what I enjoy.

 

Unfazed by the Portland rain and ticking clock, I would write to every author still alive, who impressed me with their skill.  I would send them $1000.00 each and thank them for their literary contribution.

 

Then smile, knowing each one of them would be asking the same question.


Zobostic who?

As you are not close to Oregon - try Barnes & Nobles. Most have a Starbucks!! Good Idea!! You need to work harder to promote your creativeness so your books can be on those shelves!
