Writer Seeking Room, 2–6 Months, Brooklyn

Hi! I'm newly arrived in NYC after a few years abroad and in the middle of a career transition in arts & culture (writer/producer). Looking for a room or sublet, month-to-month, 2 months to start with real openness to extending 3 months up to a year for the right place.
Budget: $1,200–1,500. Deposit and first two months guaranteed through a documented transition assistance program — paid directly to you, not dependent on my personal credit or references, happy to provide documentation once we connect.
I'm laid back, tidy, a "youthful 45," (prefer no cigarette smoking inside)
Would love to hear from you if you have something opening up!
