		<description><![CDATA[Rantytime. Warning for profanity &#8212; although I&#8217;m going to try and rein it in, as best I can. Nobody listens to Angry Black Women, after all. This rant has been partially triggered by yet another discussion of &#8220;strong female characters&#8221; circulating in the blogosphere. (A good jumping-off point for this discussion is this io9 article, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m going to have Barry Manilow in my head all. Damn. Day. Er, anyway. This is a linkspam post. As you&#8217;ve no doubt noted from the many, many sites that have chosen to &#8220;go dark&#8221; today (in some cases only for US browsers), there&#8217;s a little bit of a protest going on, over extremely harmful [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m one of those people who&#8217;s perpetually behind the pop-cultural cutting edge. In fact I pretty much lurk at the blunt ass-end of what&#8217;s new/hot/now; I discover TV series years after they&#8217;ve been cancelled, I catch up on the popular movies only when I find them in the bargain bin, I&#8217;m years out of date [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Apologies in advance; not gonna talk about writing for the moment. Instead I&#8217;m going to talk about the writing life, in a way. See, I took the GRE on Saturday. I did OK. Astounding on the verbal and abysmal on the quantitative, as I expected. I&#8217;ve been using my verbal skills steadily and with increasing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Been sort of vaguely following the whole kerfuffle over that dumbass article on fantasy over at the NY Times. (I mean &#8220;dumbass&#8221; in the most respectful way.) I&#8217;m not particularly upset about it because ignorant bigotry rarely upsets me; it&#8217;s the bigotry of the supposedly knowledgeable that I find more dangerous. And this is bigotry, [...]]]></description>

I know you&#8217;re really only interested in stories of straight white men doing straight white mannish things, whatever those might be. I get that the voices of [...]]]></description>

A short story of mine, &#8220;Sinners, Saints, Dragons, and Haints, in the City Beneath the Still Waters&#8221;, was published in the UK anthology Postscripts a few months back. I&#8217;ve sold the audio rights to Podcastle, which is going to run the story sometime soon &#8212; and I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>
