If you don't find something before your severance runs out, get registered with the Temp agencies and do that while you continue to search for a good fit somewhere. been there, done that, too. Hang in there, kid, it'll work out one way or another. Did you think anymore about the Madison job market? The offer is still open to try to link you with a contact or two up there...

I think you're a fantastic writer and I truly hope you land the job of your dreams sooner rather than later. I hope I don't sound like too much of a simp here, but have you ever thought about going out on some of the freelance writing project sites to see if there might be some jobs you could bid for out there that interest you? I mean, it would be excellent practice, plus it would at the very least be some good "side" money. Whatever you find, I'm sure you'll be great at it! Evil Genius's last blog post..Update

I say if your heart is leading you somewhere, follow your heart. If you want to write, then do it. If you want to start by selling articles to magazines, give it a try. Work the angle, hard, until you come up with something,then try it out and see what you think. Even if it doesn’t work out like you thought it might, you will have tried and you will know in your heart you gave it your all. Besides, why get 10 years down the road and have the constant wonder of “what if?”

You know, I was out of Corporate America for almost 20 years. Had some kids, went to college, didn't graduate. And the trip back to it was surprisingly short. I don't know that you can ever get so far away from it that you can't get back. Do what you want while you can. Candy's last blog post..Night Terrors

Like, -R-, I also offer up no advice, but misery does love company right? I’m also unhappy in this corporate world, but I’m trying my best to realize that unfortunately for me, right now, my job is a job and that it pays for me to enjoy my life outside of it.

Just my humble opinion. But I think if you didn't take this opportunity to write that you would regret it. You can alway get a 'job' if you need one...even if it's waiting tables or something. But you won't always have the time or the drive to write. Allison's last blog post..Whoever Said Money Can't Buy Happiness Has Obviously Never Been To Build-A-Bear

If you want to write, go for it! I think it can take about a year to build up enough clips and contacts to make a steady income, though, so you'd have to be prepared for that. It's definitely daunting, but this might be the golden opportunity! That said, I do think that it's possible to find an office culture that suits you, so don't give up on it completely.
