		<title>Anticlimatic?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have two days of work left, today and tomorrow. I&#8217;m excited, but in a very constrained sort of way. That sort of bothers me. I had anticipated jumping for joy and having my energy returned to me once I was able to quit the very draining job, but it hasn&#8217;t happened. Maybe it will [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=144&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>I Did It</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, folks, I&#8217;m making the plunge. I turned in my 2 weeks notice at my official, regular-paycheck-type job yesterday. Gulp. Now for the leap into piles of rejection slips, lots of networking, and even more waiting. Wish me luck!
Unfortunately, since I did NOT decide by the time period mentioned in my last post, I still [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=141&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Still Alive, Yes, I Am</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just barely.

Actually, I&#8217;m pretty much okay. A couple minor injuries, but seeing as the other car hit mine on the driver&#8217;s side door, I&#8217;m incredibly fortunate. My car, not so much.
The accident and its ramifications have made me rethink where I&#8217;m going and what I plan to do. I&#8217;m almost finished my degree. If all [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=137&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Getting Into It</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have an unusual way of reading books. It drives my DH crazy. I read a book about 3/4 of the way through, then put it down for days &#8211; sometimes weeks. Or I&#8217;ll read a chapter or two at a time. Or, I read about halfway, make some guesses about the plot, and then [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=135&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Milestone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[20,021 words. Need I say more?  
Actually, yes. Matthew Pearl has a new book out! I literally danced when I found The Last Dickens in Barnes and Noble. Sadly, I couldn&#8217;t buy it at the time.   Once I get my hands on it though, I&#8217;ll be sure to post a review. Hmm. [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=133&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Spring Procrastination</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve heard a couple other writers bemoaning the bad case of procrastination/writers&#8217; block that has hit them in the past couple weeks; I wonder if it&#8217;s something about the time of year.
My WIP is a bit stuck again. My MC is turning into a snot, and I don&#8217;t like it. So I&#8217;m glaring at the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=130&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Spring Fever</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I didn&#8217;t mean to take a two-week break, but that&#8217;s life for ya. I did a little writing in that time, but not much. I kind of got out of my groove when our company came (which was very fun, just not really good for my muse) and am just now starting to get back [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=123&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Miscellany</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I now have more than 18,000 words on my WIP. I know this is not a lot, especially to certain people who complete NaNo four times over during the course of November, or even just once, but for me it&#8217;s rather major. My goal with this WIP is just to finish. I&#8217;m not aiming for [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=120&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>What I&#8217;m Reading</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My husband and I are both off from work today, so while he finishes his nap (he worked graveyard shift last night) I&#8217;m sitting here with a cup of my favorite tea and a pile of books. I have several books I want to/need to finish reading in the next week, because I decided to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=116&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Words, Words, Words</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today&#8217;s editing is going hard. See, I decided a secondary character needed to be deleted. Completely. She was cluttering up my story, or maybe confusing it would be a better term. Buuuut&#8230;there was almost an entire chapter sort of based off her, and despite needing to be rid of her, I really needed the events [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=inkblotsonthepage.wordpress.com&blog=203849&post=112&subd=inkblotsonthepage&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
