		<description><![CDATA[I am fat. Seriously. I go to the gym at least 4 days a week. I take walks. Still cannot lose weight. When I’m not exercising, though, I basically sit on my ass in front of a computer. I might not feel so bad about that if I was doing some serious writing, but I’m [...]]]></description>

She was so convinced of this, that it was the motivating force behind he writing. After several years of failure on her [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I was a little kid I dreamed about being a rock star. Even now, I sometimes daydream about standing on stage rocking out with my guitar and a boss gt 6.

		<description><![CDATA[ Here it is November. The stores already have the Christmas trees and Christmas Cards out on display. That means it&#8217;s time for National Novel Writing Month (yeah, I realize there&#8217;s this other holiday called Thanksgiving, but NaNoWriMo is a pretty big holiday for aspiring writers). I had intended to tackle NaNoWriMo again this year. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Do you keep a journal? I used to. From the age about 10 until I was about 22, I kept a regular journal. I briefly picked up the habit again at 29 and at 39. &#160;In general, I think it&#8217;s a good idea to journal regularly. I also think it&#8217;s a good idea to shred, [...]]]></description>
