List of Literary Events Not To Be Missed This Week In Atlanta

ghost-town

1. Walk through the magazine racks at Borders, that one section of one kiosk that sometimes has random cool magazines but mostly not, not anymore
2. Look through the window of that bookstore in Decatur that just went out of business and breathe on the glass and pretend like that’s you in there looking at the books that you didn’t buy because you went home instead and bought them on Amazon for less money
3. Read a book and pretend in your head that that author is reading it to you, in the way you think their voice is, without the witty asides or the host between people (you can add the host if you want)
4. Secretly cherish that there aren’t that many lit events here so you don’t have to feel obligated to attend them when it’s, like, your friend and stuff
5. Look at the internet some more
