		<title>Josie&#8217;s Journal &#8211; Part II</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, I guess Josie&#8217;s not too angry that I shared her personal journal. She showed me another part of it  &#8211; a couple of very personal entries.

		<description><![CDATA[While writing my current novel (read about it here), my main character is sharing something new with me. &#8230;I know, we writer-types sound a little loopy when we talk about our characters like they&#8217;re real people.

		<title>Snap, Crackle, Pop</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Glancing at the title, you might think I&#8217;m sitting down to munch on a bowl of Rice Krispies.   But no. You wouldn&#8217;t want to ingest this noise-maker. More on that in a minute. It&#8217;s the first day of spring. How are you celebrating?  Cupping your ear to catch the strains of warbling birds? Leaping [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pause, Part III</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hello again. It&#8217;s now a tradition of mine to post this each January. I hope you&#8217;ll enjoy it. Which is your favorite month of the year? Of course, January is everyone&#8217;s best-loved month, right? Okay, probably not. Ten or 15 years ago January was last on my list. Back then I didn&#8217;t like cold weather, [...]]]></description>

It stands for National Novel Writing Month.  Every November 1-30, novelists wanting a push to crank out first drafts gather at NaNoWriMo.org, register, and set a personal goal to wrestle into existence at least 50,000 words of a novel.
