		<title>The Hemingway Trap</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So we have another storm brewing in romancelandia. A. J. Llewellyn writes m/m romance.

		<title>On Your Mark, Get Set, Go!!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I actually finished the first rough draft of a story. This may be a sign the world will end tomorrow. I know I&#8217;m not done, done. But damn this feels good. A lifelong battle with Writer&#8217;s Block just might finally be broken. I&#8217;m going to call it &#8220;Galactic Bride&#8221; &#8211; a steamy SF Romance. [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Feel I Owe Lisa Kleypas An Apology</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As a reader, I freely admit that I have some preferences that can be irrational. It is after all mostly a matter of taste. But in the interest of saving time and dollars, all of us do develop some &#8220;rules&#8221; about the books we choose to buy/read. A few of mine: Only buy fiction in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fasten Your Seat Belts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Damn it to hell, has it really been almost two months since I&#8217;ve posted?? Sigh. Must do better&#8230;. Well, the big news in publishing recently is that Borders is apparently delaying their payments to the big publishers. Death spiral.

		<title>Signing Up for NaNoWriMo &#8211; 1st Sign of Insanity?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I signed up for NaNoWriMo. I would say I&#8217;ve now officially lost my mind but what the hell, my family would tell you that happened years ago. It&#8217;s not so much that I want to write like a maniac (well maybe I do). I just want the writing to be more fun and less angst. [...]]]></description>
