Newbie About To Arrive In Ba

[Judithann]

Good morning everyone. I have gone through the threads and tried to glean as much knowledge as I could prior to posting. So I am a single woman moving from San Diego. I am coming in September to look for a place to live. I am a writer and would love to live around like minds if possible. Mostly I want a safe affordable place. I've been reading and researching since 2010 and am ready to make a move. Any advice is appreciated. I do have a two pound dog and would like to keep my rent below $800 per month. If I am looking for a three month rental will I be required to pay the full amount up front? Again thank you all.

I also moved from San Diego. Are you crazy? Look outside your window! You have a 'real' beach somewhere nearby, yes? The nearest beach like that to BA is in Brazil.

Ok, only half-serious. I do miss the beach, Cowles' Mountain, triathlons, Mexican food, Thai food, Balboa Park, the desert, Trader Joe's, fish tacos, Coronado, Point Loma ... ... crap, now I'm really depressed! LOL

I am interested in getting a serious writer's group together. What is the genre of your writing?

Hi GS Dirtboy,
Yes all those things are great but it's time for a little growth and new cultural experiences. I am currently wrapping up a memoir but love fiction with short stories being the love of my life. So how have you adjusted to life in BA?
