I'm moving to Booktown!
The town of Hay-on-Wye in Wales is completely dedicated to books and has 26 bookshops but only 2000 residents. That’s one bookshop per 77 people.

As mayor of Booktown, I'm excited watching our community of readers and writers grow. Both have a private area and already one of our novelists is using the platform to gauge interest in a new lit fest. Booktown is free and secure. There's room for 10 more residents today. discord.gg/Qc6MU87q
