"I'm going nowhere...I don't know how to break out of this holding pattern."
Quoted for Fucking Truth.
I wish I had an answer for you; I would share it with all my friends. Most of the advice out there seems to be something akin to, "Cheer up! Things will work out!" but offer nothing substantial. We have to make our own path, and that's the frustrating part. To quote Avenue Q, "I need an academic adviser to point the way."
I dunno, buy books at yard sales and goodwill outlets, and sell them on eBay for a 500% markup? Being in a library setting, you might have better knowledge what kinds of books are popular. It's something to work with, at least.
