The future destination

A home for stories, in the making

We envision an independent bookstore with a reading lounge, a teaching space, a glass-enclosed recording studio, and an intimate venue for readings and performances in McDonough, Georgia. It is a future vision in development — our online Author Studio is bringing it to life now.
