		<title>New England&#8217;s ugly days</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our snow is all gone now and so begins those ugly days between snow cover and spring green. Everything&#8217;s brown. And dead. And matted. All the crap people didn&#8217;t get around to picking up before snow fell is revealed again. 
Also revealed are the bad gardeners among us, who didn&#8217;t weed and properly put to [...]]]></description>

		<title>TV round-up in lieu of actual content</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have Sudafed-brain today, so I&#8217;m just going to babble about television. I love TV. Sometimes I remind myself I could get a lot more writing done if I didn&#8217;t watch television at night, but then I laugh at myself. No TV? Seriously? So what am I watching?
Amazing Race: This is still our favorite show, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Taming Eliza Jane, now for Kindle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Taming Eliza Jane is finally available for Kindle!
It&#8217;s been a constant source of annoyance for me (and readers) that the second book in the series, Becoming Miss Becky, was available digitally on Amazon, but the first wasn&#8217;t. Now it is!

		<title>This morning&#8217;s adventure in chicken feet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve known me a while, you know that while I&#8217;m afraid of everything from potato peelers to moving a sleeping cat, my one true deep, dark phobia is chicken feet. Not chickens. Just the feet.
This morning, after dropping the Short Kid off at school early for his Student Council meeting, I popped into the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Monday with a side of catch-up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After five days, I&#8217;m finally alone again. We&#8217;re all healthy (*knocks wood*) and everybody&#8217;s where they&#8217;re supposed to be today, which is not breathing my air.
I owe email responses and some other things. Working on them, promise.
Also still working on that damn synopsis. I find synopses for straight-up contemporary romances difficult to write. While the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A brief hiatus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a pretty sick 9-year-old and a proposal I have to finish, along with a few other writing-related matters, so I&#8217;ll be scarce for a couple of days. I have contest winners to draw and email to answer, but they&#8217;re going to have to wait until my little guy&#8217;s back on his feet.

		<title>Dear Barnes &amp; Noble</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I gave you a lot of money in exchange for a nook. I chose the nook over the Kindle even though Amazon often beats you on book prices. Even though the nook has some known glitches. Even though it doesn&#8217;t do everything you advertised it could do. Even though you, for some inexplicable and stupid-as-crap [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;ve been benched</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I guess I&#8217;ll be taking the weekend off. Though I didn&#8217;t do a damn thing to it, I have some kind of agonizing pain in the outside of my right wrist and lower hand. It started last night and just keeps getting worse.
I can&#8217;t hold a pen. The Schwans guy came &#038; writing a check [...]]]></description>

		<title>Answering to the Goodreads stats</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m willing to bet my New Year&#8217;s resolution wasn&#8217;t exactly unique&#8212;stop outbuying my reading pace. The TBR pile&#8212;even when it&#8217;s digital&#8212;is out of control and at some point you&#8217;ve gotta stop and read the books you&#8217;ve got.
This ridiculously doomed resolution coincided with another&#8212;keep track of the books I&#8217;ve read. Enter&#8230;goodreads.com (links to my profile). I&#8217;d [...]]]></description>
