QOD: Nabokov on writing

The pages are still blank, but there is a miraculous feeling of the words being there,

written in invisible ink and clamoring to become visible.

Revised Resources for the Nonprofit job hunt

Updated 10/25/10

Updated 3/4/09

Back in July I shared the first version of my nonprofit job resources.  Since I’ve come across a number of additional places to find job openings, I’m posting an update.  I’ve noted which ones are new.

Non-profit recruiting firms

Los Angeles community

If you live in the Los Angeles, the talent agency UTA has a non-profit foundation that puts out a non-profit jobs list twice a month. You can subscribe to the list by e-mailing UTAFoundation AT unitedtalent DOT com.  Though they don’t abuse your e-mail address, you will occasionally receive promotional e-mail for events being sponsored by the UTA Foundation.

Other resources

National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy (New)

Regional NPO organizations — frequently they list openings with their members ADDED 1/14/9

National Council of Nonprofits — State Associations (state sites my list member job listings) ADDED 1/14/09

Photo Fun Friday: Fit for a rat.

I realize this picture has little to do with anything of meaning, but it’s Friday, and the pic makes me smile every time I look at it.  Can you imagine sewing a tiny teddy bear fit for a rat?

I have no clue as to its origins, or I’d credit the photographer.   Peace out!
