Broken Frontier (Update II)

I've learned the hard way not to trust anything until the contract is signed. Here are three examples.

I announced some time back that I had been brought on as a professional blogger. I had this on the word of the man who would have paid me. But shortly after that, my hiring was placed on indefinite hiatus, where it's now remained for months, and let's just say I no longer feel very professional about it.

Yesterday, I applied for a writing gig that I would absolutely love, and the hiring manager and I began talks. But I fret, because the job involves describing a city where I do not currently reside. Geography is still a factor for a writer; let no one tell you otherwise.

And I announced that I was going to be writing and editing for Broken Frontier after we were all in verbal agreement, but before the contracts were signed. I shouldn't have done that.

The contracts have been signed.

More soon.
