		<title>What Are You Reading Right Now?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I used to hate that question. I felt like I was on a pop-quiz and if I didn&#8217;t answer in 2 seconds, spouting some clever or catchy or quirky title that was currently feeding my mind, I garnered a big red FAIL on my forehead. Some days I walk around rubbing my forehead, and that&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Work Styles: Freelancing and Writing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Your current, actual work style is how you work right now, not your ideal work style. You already have a work style established, consciously or not. Most likely it could be improved. Become aware of your tendencies, preferences, and habits, and how they affect your productivity and the quality of your output; then you can [...]]]></description>

		<title>You Think You Write a Lot?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Trivia Library has an interesting little page on the 20 Most Prolific Writers in Literary History. In number one position is Mary Faulkner [or should I say Kathleen], who produced 904 books in her 70-year life. Assuming she probably didn&#8217;t begin writing books until after adolescence, say, around 20 years old, then she produced an [...]]]></description>

		<title>7 Ways to Read More and Like It</title>
		<description><![CDATA[#1. If you can&#8217;t remember what you&#8217;re reading, quit reading it. If it&#8217;s not good enough to remember, it&#8217;s not good enough. Donate not-good-enough to Goodwill. Don&#8217;t waste your time. #2. Start a little reading journal. This is not complicated. You do not have to carry it with you. You do not have to write [...]]]></description>

		<title>When Writing Happens</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Writing happens when you begin to treat the resistance as the intangible, shadowy, powerless thing that it is and write anyway. Start your day by writing a page or two on paper. It engages your physical body and your mind in the process of writing and forces you to focus on the thought and the [...]]]></description>

		<title>How to Remember What You Read</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You need one item. Mine is 5 inches by 8 inches with narrowly spaced graph paper and a red cover that gets creased from being folded back. You need two items, actually, because something to write with is essential. A little reading journal and a pen. Or pencil. The next time you begin a book [...]]]></description>

		<title>Writing What You Know</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve heard the advice before. You probably don&#8217;t want to hear it again, but guess what? I don&#8217;t really care. I&#8217;m here to tell you what I know to be true, what I think will most help you to succeed as a writer. So the advice so oft repeated it&#8217;s become a cliché is still [...]]]></description>

		<title>Overcoming Writer&#8217;s Block</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So you sit down to write and you have no idea what to do. The page stares at you. Your mind races, then goes blank. You can&#8217;t think of a single story that seems worth writing about, or even a single story at all. You can&#8217;t remember what you wanted to say. You feel insignificant. [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Writing Process</title>
		<description><![CDATA[1. Collecting = ideas/stories Ideas and stories are everywhere. Your job as the writer is to be observant. To notice. To watch. To see. To take note. To make notes. To listen. Assumptions are the writer&#8217;s worst enemy. Assumptions make you think you already know the story, you&#8217;ve already heard the idea. NEVER ASSUME. My [...]]]></description>
