After The Game Is Before The Game

I've taken the plunge - I'm putting the Casa de Stark up for sale. It should be on the market within the next week and a half or so, and I should get enough to last me a year and a half in Lalaland. So what I need to figure out is whether I keep trying get back into the whole six-figure income for sixteen-hour-day one-weekend-day off per month for four more years until they tell me that I'm not going to make partner track, or use the next year and a half to continue writing and find a job that doesn't make me feel like I've been kicked in the stomach when I go home at night.

If I decide to leave the law now, there's no turning back - no one is going to hire a guy who's been out of practice for two years. OK, now that I have that pro forma worrying out of the way, I think the answer is clear. Heh heh, my muse is back.
