		<description><![CDATA[NaNoWriMo, for those who don&#8217;t know, is National Novel Writing Month,  a period of insanity when writers all over the world commit to producing a completed novel of 50,000 words in 30 days (1667 words/day). NaNo has been going on every November since 1999, when only 21 writers participated. This year, over 130,000 writers have signed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[(As you read this, remember it was written for and presented at a Romance Writers of America conference.  It&#8217;s absolutely valid for any writer, but you may have to translate to your own genre). A writer&#8217;s education consists of more than going to monthly chapter meetings or attending the annual local conference.  It means reading [...]]]></description>

Those are the ones where you and the copy editor (not your &#8220;editor&#8221; at most houses, but a grammar-freak-with-a-red-pencil-for-hire) clean up your commas, fix mis-usages, find those dropped periods, and catch all your typos. You hope. I ran into this video from [...]]]></description>

Things that I would like to have said myself, or that I have said, but not nearly so well. Toni McGee Causey did all that and more this morning over at Murderati. Go read.

Easy, right? Uh, no.  Apparently, my brain fell out somewhere along Highway 1—probably slid out the window on one of [...]]]></description>

She wanted to know whether the failure to address some realistic approach to birth/disease control makes a book a wallbanger or whether the mere mention [...]]]></description>
