		<title>On where to put your black swans.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Joseph Fouche has a fascinating article entitled Seizing the Opportunity to Destroy Western Civilization.  I don&#8217;t know anything about Fouche, although the blogroll he belongs to suggests a right-libertarian bent with touches of joyful submission to authoritarianism (Althouse?  Really?), but this article of his has all the makings of a classic for writers [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Story, &#8220;Fortune Cookie.&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a fairly standard Furry fantasy, with some antagonistic-to-furry language at the beginning.  If you think you recognize yourself in the story, you&#8217;re probably wrong.  It was a lot of fun to write, and I&#8217;d like to thank an unnamed lovely young woman for giving me so many amazing ideas.   M/F, bondage.  Please enjoy [...]]]></description>

		<title>Notes from a WIP</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Who knows?  I might make it by Friday after all:
It was easy then.  Remove his infectious code, pull up the registry and edit out all the brutal redirects from his remotes, along with shutdown codes that prevent legitimate anti-malware from running.
The penguin doesn&#8217;t care about any of that.  To me, all of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Three Things For Today.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No great announcements, just a few writerly things I saw today:
#1: Regarding my recent reviews of Jeanette Winterson&#8217;s The Stone Gods, Jo Waltonnails my opinion to the floor:
The techniques of writing and reading [science fiction] have developed in that time. Old things sometimes look very clunky, as if they’re inventing the wheel—because they are. Modern [...]]]></description>

		<title>Review: Jeanette Winterson, The Stone Gods</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I&#8217;ve finished reading The Stone Gods by Jeanette Winterson, and my reactions are mixed, to say the least.  My primary reaction was one of intense sadness: she really does believe that she&#8217;s braving new territory.  She is completely unaware that she&#8217;s hacking through a jungle right next to a long, well-trodden road and the [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Story!  And bonus stories by others!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In case you missed it, I&#8217;ve posted a new story in the Bastet series: Bath Night, which brings us to the most recent decade and a riff on something I read during the Iraq war.
If you&#8217;re a fan of the Singularity, here are two stories told from opposite sides of the fence: Gentle Seduction by [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Lead, And How to Swing It</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Insanely prolific blogger and book reviewer James Nicoll has a contest entitled Because My Tears Are Delicious To You.  James has a lack of patience for exceptionally bad SF, along with a notoriously long idiosyncratic list of things in SF that especially set him off, and is challenging people to write the ultimate &#8220;make [...]]]></description>

		<title>Annoyed at myself for being annoyed at myself for being annoyed at myself&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The other day, I was reading one of my own Journal Entries, trying to remind myself of why I wrote them and get back into the groove of writing them again.  Now that I&#8217;m doing freelance work, though, I don&#8217;t have as much time to write as I used to.  I have to produce value, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why I&#8217;m mad about it&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I suppose I should make clear that what makes me most annoyed about Winterson&#8217;s The Stone Gods (see previous post) is that the Used Furniture problem is more pernicious than just a good writer &#8220;slumming&#8221; around inside the SF universe, borrowing from the warehouse, or failing to think clearly either the justifications for her setting [...]]]></description>

		<title>A premature book review: Jeanette Winterson&#8217;s The Stone Gods</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s hard to describe just how disappointed I am in Jeanette Winterson&#8217;s novel-length stab at science fiction, The Stone Gods.  Winterson&#8217;s contemporary and historical fiction has a poetic sensibility that is beautiful beyond measure, a deftness of metaphor and exposition that will at times leave me breathless, unable to read another paragraph without pause [...]]]></description>
