I just found out from Nicole Aurora that this store is closing. It’s a very sad story.
When Joshua and I were here two years ago and stayed with Jill, we stopped in at Clean Well-Lighted Place, since it was in her building, and I bought a book on the Tenderloin. Many local and famous authors do signings and readings there, including Anne Lamott, who apparently did one recently, only I didn’t find out about it in time, ahem, *Nicole*.
So I’m proud to say that I’ve been there and that I’ve bought a book there. It truly is going to be the end of an era. Ms. Bender and I are planning to go tomorrow. I hope the sales are good.
Restraint, Kristen, restraint.
