#1949books is 4 years old!!! With a lot of trepidations did we open 4 years ago, not knowing exactly where we were going. We still don't but we have an idea. From a library opened with 150 books, we have about 1,000 books today, a (little) bookstore, a writing residency.

@ehlan_pearl You good now? Sending hugs your way.
