		<description><![CDATA[A lot has been written about the process of writing &#8211; how you go from initial glimmer of an idea to the final draft &#8211; and for good reason. It’s one of the things that most bugs new writers, and most fascinates many more experienced writers. When you’re starting out, you wonder if you’re doing [...]]]></description>

Most writers start out writing because they enjoy it. They do it just simply because they can and because it gives them [...]]]></description>

One of the hardest things in writing, or learning to write, is learning to accept that what comes out of your imagination, your pen or your keyboard first time [...]]]></description>
