Can't afford to move.
No place to go, really. My wife has a really good job here, and thank God not one easily vulnerable to layoffs. My house is well above water, but not paid for.
Now I think it's time for me to buckle back down to my writing and proposals. With luck, I'll either make a sale or get another contract. Next year is going to be a bitch and a half in this state. And it's something like 13 percent of the GDP of the country.
