Job hunting in America

So I'm still on the prowl

'cuz I work with a scowl.

It's not easy trying to find a job. It's a full-time job itself, but I have faith that at some point someone (somewhere) will think me suitable for employment. I also know that I set the bar quite high for myself. I don't want a part-time position, as I've already got three of those. I don't want just any English job either; I want to teach early modern lit. And while I have no problem teaching other courses--I rather look forward to teaching 19th century, modern, and American lit--I really feel that one of the only ways I'll be able to move forward in my field is if I can find some time to teach within it.

So, all you schools out there that may be lurking, troll-like, at the periphery...scanning blogs for out of work PhDs...here's your chance. You can have me for a song!

please? :)
