I am contemplating applying for jobs this fall.

Well, actually, considering that September and October are peak months for activity on the AAS job Register, really that means I should be working on applications NOW.

I intend to restrict my search to tenure-track faculty positions, and select among openings quite carefully, and submit applications to just 4 or 5 places. I do have two years left on my current fellowship, so if nothing pans out, I still have next year to apply for jobs in earnest.

Really I think I have a snowball's chance in hell of even making a short list anywhere, but nothing ventured, nothing gained, right? Or is that too many cliches?

The whole prospect of putting my name forward for positions fills me with gut-wrenching sweaty-palmed fear.

Yeah, I figured putting out feelers now might be a good idea...
