Actually at the C-Suite level, there is even less secrecy about moving jobs. The exec club is pretty small (and ripe with gossip).

The standard in business (at least with the aggressive folk I play with) is not to spend more than a year in a position, until you hit the exec levels.

Glad you're feeling better. :*) Are you going to announce when your book is coming out?

If the original asker hadn't completely missed the mark on thinking you work for an editor, I'd have thought they were talking about AAR's policies on not recommending editing services. Which of course aren't an issue since you're not getting clients from your agent.

I wish you all the best in your job search! I'm doing the same thing and boy is it depressing. At least you've got your foot in the door; I've got my nose pressed against the door while I keep ringing the bell and hoping someone will let me in. I've gotten to the point of trying to get another internship, 'cause apparently one wasn't enough. ^_^

You're shedding light in previously shadowy places. Thanks!

Since you've said you are feeling better, this may be too little too late, and you may already know about it, but there is an excellent book for good intestinal health called "Breaking the Vicious Cycle" by Elaine Gottschall, which has not only helped myself, but basically anyone I know who has followed the diet. It's pretty restrictive, and not easy, but the results are very impressive, and I do know someone who has Crohn's Disease who is on it and is worlds better. It's a lovely alternative to medicating oneself, and truly does work (and I'm really not one to shy away from doctors or prescribed medication, I just could not find anything that would help me - saw every kind of specialist - and then this book came along, and it was amazing.)

Anyway, just a suggestion (and no I am not employed by the publisher of said book, nor the PR rep, just someone who understands what it's like to go through what you have [though granted a far less extreme case], and was excited to find something that helped)!

Hi there. I'm mostly a lurker around these here parts, but I want to offer my congratulations on your improved health. I don't know the details about your illness (and certainly it's none of my **** business), but it's wonderful that you're feeling well enough to work full-time now.

Thanks for the awesome blog, and best wishes for a long and healthy life.
