		<description><![CDATA[A friend pointed out to me on Twitter just the other day that as of this week, it is exactly one year since I picked up my first Stephen King book and started reading.

I&#8217;m up at 5:15 to go to the gym, on the road at 7:20 to commute to work, at my desk by 8:30, back on the road between 5:30 and 6:00, home by 6:45 if I&#8217;m lucky, having [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The world of genre fiction was dealt a serious blow when author Terry Pratchett announced that he suffered from early-onset Alzheimer&#8217;s disease. It didn&#8217;t stop him from writing, but it may have moved up the end of his writing career. His previous Discworld novel, &#8220;Unseen Academicals&#8221;, was – to my mind, anyway – full of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I feel like my first post of the new Escape-Pod-has-a-real-blog era should be full of originality and in no way derivative of prior works, but we just don&#8217;t have that kind of time out on this arm of the spiraling blogosphere. So this morning I read The Guardian&#8217;s quite interesting profile of Insane Clown Posse, which [...]]]></description>
