		<description><![CDATA[Now you can get get ideas anywhere, it's true, but some of them only appear on Tumblr, I swear. It's this huge pathos of human collectiveness going on as you scroll down and down and down for hours, every human emotion and activity flayed and splatted up on the screen for your private viewing enjoyment. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=presentsofmind.wordpress.com&#038;blog=3162913&#038;post=3947&#038;subd=presentsofmind&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The problem with being an American writer, I've found, is that unless you come from the South, say, or maybe New England, there is only the crap-insipid strip mall culture and miles of bland suburbia with nothing but cars and concrete, where no one knows anyone, and friendships and one's whole life are like fast food.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=presentsofmind.wordpress.com&#038;blog=3162913&#038;post=3929&#038;subd=presentsofmind&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I fumble through preliminary scribblings on loose-leaf binder pages, terribly messy attempts to grope my way into the darkness of creation, I struggle to see and feel my characters, to write a few words and scratch them out over and over again as I figure out what I'm doing, my point of view, and who my characters are. Every word is absolutely important. Tone and texture and detail and image. There are a million considerations.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=presentsofmind.wordpress.com&#038;blog=3162913&#038;post=3898&#038;subd=presentsofmind&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
