i have tried libraries before, and yes, they can be real cool, esp if you desire that real quiet. it can be a revelation how quiet they can be. my local Bux happens to jack the music up to level eleventy most days. :-/ i did start considering again a coworking space. i did nextspace in san jose - was fine. not sure how much work i actually got done -- too much walk-in traffic, socializing, etc. - even when i didn't want to. looking at a place only in atl right now - https://meetatroam.com/ https://meetatroam.com/ . their shared/open-office-style memberships start at something reasonable-ish -- $150 or so -- with the requisite scammy two-month minimum, signup fees, cancel before you'd ever expect to have to cancel restrictions, and prob a bunch of other stuff I won't find out until too late if i decide to sign up. they happen to have these solo-style offices which are bigger than phone booths, and lockable, etc., and they're yours -- think they are called 'Dedicated Desks' -- listed at $500 -- which is diff than i've seen at other places -- they are not just a dedicated desk like a reserved parking spot -- they're a private fully-sealed/contained seat/desk/booth -- which is something I'd be interested in. i'd want to knock out private calls in there, then float to the community area in between calls, etc. not affiliated, but the price seemed low enough, and they were open enough about pricing, that if i sign up to a place again, it could be them. the 'booths' at Roam are interesting because they seem to provide a touch of privacy, and seem to move back in the direction of cubicles - which were really good for getting work done. the twice i've gone to check out various locations, the booths were all filled.
