		<description><![CDATA[August features two birthdays.  My dad was born August 10, and my sister Melody was born August 24, but forty years later. The end of summer always makes me want to weep myself into a deep, quiet, moss-colored river and pull willow branches over my head.  My back yard, lush and seductive a few weeks [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My last whine had to do with my feelings about writing a murder. I didn’t want to write it. I did write it. And it’s a beaut.  Cleverly plotted by the bad guys and almost impossible (but not quite impossible!) to solve.  Fairly gruesome.  Rather inventive and creepy. I did a craftsmanlike job of creating [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This book was supposed to be a romance with a bit of coming-of-age in it. I wrote it during NaNo 2009, and somehow, it morphed into a mystery&#8211;with romance and a bit of coming-of-age in it. During revision, I found ways to strengthen and deepen the mystery.  All is well, all is good. Until I [...]]]></description>

To be honest, I don’t know what this thing is.  I suspect it is the first half of a story that will be about 7000 words by the time it’s finished. But what is it, [...]]]></description>
