In which we turn our face back into the wind.

Well , just gave notice at the day job. Been here 10 months, didn't intend to stay more than a few. Now that my sabbatical is over and contracts are coming in again, I need to get back on the career focus and less on the "busy work" focus.

I told her I'd stay to train someone new, etc... I think she almost cried.

Well, I'd propose naming a (nice) NPC/character for her, if you would think she wouldn't be offended, and then send her a copy of the page/info/etc.

Then again, I'm a sap like that for bosses I have enjoyed working with.

I am happy you have contracts and such coming in... I am pleased for you.

Congrats! I'd love to be able to quit mine. :)

Huzzah! I gave notice to mine, too. Yay, perilous freelance writing careers.

Huzzah!
We'll have to buy each other... er... find people with paying jobs to buy us a drink... to celebrate at GenCon!

[weaver42.livejournal.com]

Good plan!

Buy us drinks, people!

Done and done :)
Never say I'm not a supporter of freelancers in literature... whatever flavor they happen to come in.

*whew* Thank ghods for not having a paying job...so does that mean you guys buy me drinks?

Yes?

[jesshartley.livejournal.com]

Will you be at GenCon?

[neutronjockey.livejournal.com]

:( Probably not. Doesn't mean we can't have NeutronCon in Tulsa and invite all the cool kids.

[jesshartley.livejournal.com]

*Grins* That would be so fun. :)

[mabfan.livejournal.com]

Wow. Good luck.

[terri-osborne.livejournal.com]

Congratulations!

I envy you. Best of luck!

[sheriffjoe.livejournal.com]

Yes. Heavy on the envy. Also, if you need any more freelance help, my last gig should be up in less than a month. :)

Congrats on the love from the day job...that, in itself, must be quite rewarding. Not as rewarding as writing, mind, but fuzzilicious all the same. :)

Hello again!

[prince-cosmic.livejournal.com]

It sounds like you are doing the right thing for you, but then that's one of the things I love about you! :D
