The corner seat gives the best view

There is just something "safe" and "fun" about sitting in that corner seat of any public coffee shop. Do you understand why I say that? Well, let me explain....

When I go to a public place to drink coffee, I usually like to sit for several hours drinking coffee and writing. It's a social experience, believe it or not. It's a place where I can go to enjoy my favorite hot beverage, type out my thoughts as I have conversations in my mind about stories and characters. The social part is that even though I'm keeping to myself tucked back in the corner, I have the prime seat to observe every one coming and going while I sit out of the way. My table is not in the path of all that foot traffic or in a popular spot by the window where every one wants to sit. No. It's off in the far corner, unnoticed, while I think, create and observe.
