Gone Communicatin'

So. That happened.

As you may know, I've got a new gig communicating for City Council President Mike Ross. Since shortly after my unfortunate layoff, I've been doing some consulting for him, and it turned into a full-time position. Which is great news for my bank account, but less than stellar for pasquinade.

I love blogging. I relish reading your comments. Yes, even the nasty ones. Although my family is less than thrilled by my willingness to talk about my life here (my mother still prefaces some statements with "don't blog this"), I've really enjoyed oversharing with strangers. When I was making textbooks or acting as my own media personality, that was appropriate. Now that I'm representing a politician, it's less so.

This means pasquinade will largely go un-updated for a while. I'm under contract to write for NESN.com for a while longer, so you'll see my sports-related thoughts there. When I'm officially done, I'm hoping to have a Blogging Hiatus party at a location to be named later to thank you all for reading. (By gracing you with my presence, that is. I was unemployed, remember. I can't afford open bar or snacks.)

With all the challenges facing Boston, this gig will be an interesting adventure. I hope you'll keep tabs on what's coming out of City Hall in the next few months, and I'll be talking to you soon.

Congratulations on landing employment. I will miss your New England musings. Thanks for bringing Boston to Phoenix (AZ) for a brief period of time.

Congrats Amy,
I started reading your blog a few months ago. I live near Tacoma,WA but grew up in Swampscott and North Reading. I was recently home for my nephew's wedding in Chelmsford and it was great! My oldest daughter is a UW grad, English Lit and unemployed so I was relating to your situation. I enjoyed your bluntness and the funny vibe of your writing. Don't compromise your character or integrity in your new occupation. Ross seems to be a good guy. You can help keep him that way. Good luck and enjoy yourself.
