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):

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

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…
