Received an email this morning that we are back to my sending my story list to the mentoring editor AND the managing editor. No explanation. Did my self-eval touch a nerve? IDK. Another wave of panic hit, mainly because I never get an explanation.
I'm looking at all these jobs that require some heavy lifting. I think I'm really looking for something that would come a bit easily so I can have a chance to regroup and breathe. I'm attracted to positions with more money and more power, but I might be better off with something less as opposed to more, right now.
A chance to regroup, breathe, get settled somewhere and, then, build from there sounds glorious.
That helps. I don't want to be in a position where I'm in charge of a million things. I wish I had listened to that inner voice when I took this job. But, still, I have loads of experience now.
