The Job Hunt

I am about to look for a new job. My resume and a couple of sample cover letters are done, and I've been through the paper and on-line over the weekend. My plan is to contact every publishing company in Indianapolis with a cold call,a nd try to get in the door that way.

I'm a little nervous, but I guess that's to be expected.

My dream job right now would be to write full time. I have been spending alot of time working on submissions for a couple of genre-specific magazines, and trying hard to make myself look good on their messageboards. It's been a great experience so far, and I think I've finally figured out what to do with my life.

I only wish I had understood this ten years ago, but it's better late than never.
