What's up with me

resonantBeen missing DW. So I thought I'd try posting as well as reading and see how that worked!
Current status:
IRL:
Still job-hunting after getting laid off this summer.
I got access to jobs coaching as part of my severance, and I didn't think much of the idea but the execution has been amazing. I've loved having assignments to help me break the whole process down into manageable steps, and encouragement from someone who understands my field. And just in the ten years since I last job-hunted, the process has changed so much (mostly around finding remote work with no local contacts) that it's helpful to have some guidance.
Obligatory self-promo: I'm looking for grant writing or proposal management work, or something else with the same skills combo (writing plus research plus executive function stuff). Someplace smaller than IBM.
Otherwise: still in a commuter marriage. The kidlet (who was asleep on my shoulder while I wrote my very first fanfic) left for grad school in August.
Fannishly:
Back in due South, the warm pond where my fannish life began. Place is pretty lively for source material that went off the air in the previous century!
Slowly dipping back into writing. Currently working on solving the problem that most sex pollen stories don't actually have very much sex in them.
