		<title>Name Paralysis</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I really adore this article &#8212; Name Paralysis.  It’s about an annoying distraction that doesn’t really make sense.  Although it’s targeted toward software development, it has a lot in common with writing.  I often get caught up in “Name Paralysis” myself :  titles for chapters, names for characters, fictional places, etc.   One spends so much time [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jean Holloway Discusses her Steamy New Book, Ace of Hearts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Jean, welcome to Jenue&#8217;s Journal.  Ace of Hearts is defined as a romantic thriller, how is the book divided between the two?
One of the hardest things for me is to try to put a genre label on Ace of Hearts. The consensus is from erotic thriller (that’s a hint as to how steamy ;o) to [...]]]></description>
