In content like Honoré de Balzac's 1831 Le Chef-d'œuvre inconnu or George Gissing's 1891 New Grub Street, creatives describe the struggle that fellow creatives face in producing high-quality content.

Publicly and officially, my last day at The A.V. Club will be March 2nd. I have a lot of emotions about leaving what’s been a fantastic experience and a dream job, but looking back at the last seven years, what I feel the most is gratitude.

UPDATE: The seven A.V. Club workers in Chicago have decided to take their union-contract-protected severances rather than move to L.A. without a cost-of-living adjustment. A statement from the union (1/X):

Some personnel news: I am leaving The A.V. Club after six years. This statement details why. My last day is March 2, and yes, I am looking for work!

Heartbroken, but my last day at The A.V. Club, after the seven greatest professional years of my life, is May 1 (International Workers' Day, which makes sense):

Some news, as they say: After nearly nine years at the site, I am leaving The A.V. Club. These are the reasons why. My last day will be March 2nd, unless anyone wants to hire me before then.

Well, this is an interesting new chapter in observing my life as if it's happening to someone else. (I have not resigned from my job...that I know of.)

The first workers expected to move were told they had until Jan. 15 to decide. None of the seven A.V. Club employees have yet told G/O management their decision. But for some reason, G/O listed three of those positions on its job site last night… boards.greenhouse.io/gomedia 2/X

Woke up this morning to news that G/O Media has posted a job listing for my current position and those of several of my Chicago colleagues. This is nine days before any of us have to give the company a decision about whether or not we're making the move to Los Angeles.

Last month, G/O management told its seven Chicago-based A.V. Club employees that they either had to move to Los Angeles to work in the company’s new office there or lose their jobs. The employees were not offered cost-of-living increases. 1/X gawker.com/media/av-club-…



My funeral. The door swings open. My glass coffin is very slowly carried in by six shirtless / topless pallbearers in ornate Venetian masks as this blasts at absolutely deafening volume. youtube.com/watch?v=ubUqIo…
