Where can I find a new place to live?
List of lodgings is here: http://echobazaar.wikidot.com/available-lodgings.
I went for the "Rooms above a bookshop" - IIRC, using the Tales of Terror in your inventory creates a key for the rooms, which appears as a story option for you. I discovered this when mousing over items in inventory, some of which are usable by clicking to create new things.
