Ugh, I am waffling on whether to live in Madison or in a town 30 miles out. To be fair, the town 30 miles out is a genuine, living arts colony.

[Snowflake]

Ooh, art colony!

[€uroMeinke]

Yeah, I'd pick Arts Colony too

So, this was actually extremely helpful, Snowflake and EM.

After I read your comments, things evolved here to a decision to concentrate on the arts colony and other little towns within easy driving distance of Madison.

Wait, wait! What does "arts colony" mean? It sounds fun, but I'd worry that it would be like living in a religious cult full of piety and unpleasantness. "Have you made enough art today, neighbor? Didn't write your 1,000 words? Mind telling us why?" I'd also worry that there'd be too many people with that artsy serenity that you just want to hit with a skillet. I'd dip a toe in now again, but I'd be leery about permanent residence.

Currently writing third book with Tom. We're good.

So I got my Federally required 60-day Lay-off notice today. Monday I interview with the new company - let's see if I get an offer or a big check. Now counting down to March 4.

Goog luck!

[DreadPirateRoberts]

Good luck

Just a thought on the Interview process. I'd probably skip wearing the gold pants for that.
