On the up
So, I got offered a job. It's part-time, over Christmas, but it's something wonderful after so long, and I can't wait to get started on Saturday.
This will mean a couple of things. Firstly, no more bleating from me on here about not having a job - although it has been four months, and it did seem like nothing was going to change. Secondly, maybe not quite so much posting (as if there was loads anyway) while things sort themselves out. Or maybe there'll be more, I don't know.
I had a lovely email the other day from a reader asking if I could bring back the Enemies of Reason to what it was, before I'd lost my job. It was really nicely put and I found it quite touching. I'll try, that's all I can say. I don't know if I can, but I'll try to write the sort of stuff I used to do. We'll see how it goes. There may be other projects here and there, so we'll see how they go.
In the meantime, it's looking better.

That’s really great news. Just stumbled across your blog today and spent ages reading. Thanks so much for writing about being depressed&job hunting. I get tired of hearing my fav journos talking about how they stumbled into their careers (not columnists I mean foreign&investigative stuff) simply by luck. Very inspired by your work. Hope you can write more books and get satisfaction from teaching. All the best.
