		<title>Back Home Again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And more or less awake after a Very Interesting Night and Day&#8230;got home finally, showered, fell into bed and am now up (sort of) after a solid 5-6 hours of sleep.
I will get to comments that need answering later&#8211;there&#8217;s business stuff that must be attended to first, and only 500 of the day&#8217;s required words [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back to Work &amp; snippet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I left Atlanta this morning and wrote 2700+ words on the train, mostly about poor (ummph, you don&#8217;t know him yet.  Let&#8217;s just say that he&#8217;s young and was brash, but reality has laid some clue-bats on him lately.   I didn&#8217;t expect he&#8217;d ever become a POV character, as he wasn&#8217;t my favorite of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dragon*Con Itself</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a busy couple of days.   Dragon*Con is always exciting, but also (for me, anyway) exhausting.   Crowded and loud (it&#8217;s the loud that bothers me more than the crowded; I should wear earplugs, probably.)  Costumes&#8211;amazing and wonderful.  I saw someone in a steampunked wheelchair&#8230;lots of people in steampunk costumes, most of them brilliantly detailed.   [...]]]></description>

		<title>Arrival</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Another day of travel, another 2000+ words added to Book III.    Maybe I should live on the train?   No, not really.   But it focuses my mind something wonderful&#8211;no phone, no interruptions (well, meals and such but nothing else) and the words come.   Scenery, too.  And interesting people when I do come up for air.  (Little [...]]]></description>

		<title>On the Road (rail)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m now in final packing mode and soon to leave for the city to do a few chores and then catch the train.   Posting here is likely to be spotty at best though I should be able to report how much I wrote on the train by sometime Thursday.  That&#8217;s if my brain stays connected [...]]]></description>

		<title>One Goal Reached</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Progress: 40,000 words in August.  40,630, to be precise, from August 1 through 28.
Book III is now closing in on the next writer-odometer marker (watching those zeros turn over) and will reach that by August 31.   I don&#8217;t know how much writing I&#8217;ll actually get done at Dragon*Con, but I&#8217;ll try.

		<title>Ebook News (UK)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When those of you in the UK started complaining about no access to ebooks of my stuff in the UK-European English-language distribution area, I went to Orbit UK, looked at their site, and then emailed my UK editor.  (I am  lucky to have two great editors right now,  Betsy Mitchell at Del Rey and Bella [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back on Track</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Thursday and Friday were fizzles as far as writing was concerned, and Saturday wasn&#8217;t especially good, but did produce something, and this evening the scenes I&#8217;d been contemplating while driving to and from church today came alive, so I made both my week goal of 10,0oo words and I&#8217;m on track to meet  my [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sometimes the Magic Works&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;The Writing Magic, that is.    After some slogging days of making quota but not feeling the thrill (&#8220;But I&#8217;d rather sit out by the water garden and watch dragonflies&#8230;&#8221;)  I started a scene on Tuesday that grew&#8230;and picked the right place to stop for the day.
Yesterday the rest of it took off at a gallop.    [...]]]></description>
