Despite what he told Eva, John didn't have much time to look into the matter of Billy Thornton/Will Sheffield because he needed to find a job. The money from the book would only last him so long given the cost of living in the Bay Area.

Being somewhat of a local celebrity was a drawback too. People recognized him from his interview on the local news or the inside back cover of his book. Potential employers were hesitant to hire someone so controversial.
