Live your life in such a way that people don’t try to kill you three times. Or, worse, in such a way that you have to stage assassination attempts every so often to get people to feel bad for you.

A wine bar with a secondhand bookstore. Or a secondhand bookstore which serves local reds and whites to book lovers. And it’s got to have a table long enough for writing groups to sit and write comfortably.
