		<title>A hint of autumn</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The morning is a bit chilly (when you&#8217;re used to 90-plus degrees), and mist is rising off the pool. (Not sure you can see that in the photo! Too bright out here to tell on my screen!) Fall won&#8217;t be here any time soon, but it&#8217;s making promises&#8211;hinting that it knows where we are. How [...]]]></description>

		<title>Surprise! Sale at Amazon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Update! I was so surprised at the sale on Kindle books, I didn&#8217;t realize there was also a sale on the mass market paperback editions. Only $1.30! What a great deal. I just culled my books, too&#8211;some to goodwill, some to the library. Will the beloved notice when the evidence of my addiction begins to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mondays when you have a pretty good job!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I like Mondays. They&#8217;re a return to normal routine. I didn&#8217;t love that return when it meant uncomfortable shoes, deciding what to wear, and a two-hour drive to my tiny urban cubicle away from home and from my writing. But these days, the weekends are fraught with plans that my SO often forgets to mention [...]]]></description>

		<title>Belated on Friday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is what I&#8217;ve been doing today. A little bit of this&#8211;writing on the laptop&#8211;a little bit of that&#8211;covering scratches on our furniture that&#8217;s been moved 22 times. I&#8217;m tired of cleaning so I&#8217;m thinking it might be time to take the laptop down to the pool and write between swims. Or I could fold [...]]]></description>

		<title>Thursday. Thursday?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just a drive-by today. Didn&#8217;t finish as much as I wanted (or hardly anything) yesterday. I let real life get in the way after going on about story life taking over. Wouldn&#8217;t you know? And&#8211;a friend and I agreed to take a quick run up to the mountains after we meet goals we set. I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wednesday, Working</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m melding the half a book I&#8217;d already written to the new version of the proposal that I just submitted. And my mind is there. I&#8217;ve mentioned this before. When I&#8217;m buried in a story, I&#8217;m sort of blank in real life because I&#8217;m distracted. There&#8217;s a whole &#8216;nother world going on in my head. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Randomly Tuesday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Time to be random! First, I&#8217;d love to update my counter over there, but I&#8217;m editing, and I can&#8217;t be sure how many words I have. Marrying two files is about as tricky as you&#8217;d expect. Here&#8217;s a weird thing. While I&#8217;m not sleeping in the middle of the night, I sometimes watch crrrazzy stuff [...]]]></description>

		<title>Too Hot for Autumn</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Oh&#8211;it&#8217;s still August? Not Autumn. And yet, I just received an ad for a spooktacular bootique!  :-)  I love seeing Halloween stuff already. In my head, I see orange and red and gold leaves flying around in the light of candles and car headlights and lanterns hanging on spooky (decorated) houses. Too much candy to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Oh, dear.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever been in the middle of reading a story, when suddenly, there&#8217;s a scene that&#8217;s uncomfortably close to one you&#8217;ve written? For&#8211;say&#8211;a&#8211;proposal? I&#8217;ve never really had that happen before, but last night, I was enjoying the actual pleasure of reading, when suddenly&#8230; Oh, dear. One of my favorite authors once said she&#8217;d had [...]]]></description>

		<title>Break, Anyone?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I meant to take one yesterday. I&#8217;d sent the proposal. I was exhausted, and I thought I had no more brainstorming cells left. However, I met a friend for lunch near an office supply store. (What writer can resist writing implements?) I found a lovely notebook and then, somehow an excellent pen also jumped into [...]]]></description>
