		<description><![CDATA[I posted this around the social web last week, so here it is here. My story is that I &#8220;discovered&#8221; a missing chapter from one of the Song of Ice and Fire septology, narrated by a new point-of-view character. Here it is! &#160;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m on so many blasts right now. Yesterday was my first time at Boston Comic Con. I&#8217;m in the midst of grading twenty-one papers for a class I&#8217;m helping to teach at Harvard Extension School. I just figured out that a sequence of three small paintings I&#8217;m wrapping up is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just learned that PANTONE is teaming up with Sephora to create a make-up line. Then, I learned something even more exciting: the entire collection revolves around the 2012 color of the year, Tangerine Tango. I&#8217;ve written in the past of my deep and abiding love for Pantone and the [...]]]></description>

		<title>what made me happy this week</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Things! This week has been cold and miserable and awesome. Read on to see what I&#8217;ve been up to. Every year before Valentine&#8217;s day, my office requests donations of unused or barely-used toiletries and cosmetics, which they donate to the Cambridge YMCA&#8217;s women and children shelter. This week I cleaned [...]]]></description>

		<title>best hot cocoa</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not a fan of cold weather, despite being NY-born and New England-raised. I shiver. I whimper. And when I get home, I often turn to an old-fashioned warm-me-up. And today was the first day of 2011 cold enough to require this treat. One of the greatest things I&#8217;ve learned [...]]]></description>

		<title>this time of year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[oh, christmassery. I love love giving presents, and I&#8217;ve been told that I am particularly good at it. I am totally the kind of person who keeps multiyear spreadsheets of gift-giving ideas. But I&#8217;m so bad at actually making the effort of going out and doing the shopping—especially when it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[all about FOCUSING. I&#8217;m spinning my wheels between three sprawling creative projects: my enormous graphic novel, a shorter 5-20 page comic I&#8217;m writing/illoing for a book competition, and my ss/ss triptych. Plus I just picked up a freelance web gig kind of by mistake. Now I need to slow down [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Skipped the family affair to attend my friends&#8217; Sixth Annual Weird Thanksgiving. There were two birds: turkey and emu, and everything else was potlatch. I learned that &#8220;dressing&#8221; is midwestern for &#8220;stuffing,&#8221; was reminded how incredibly witty everyone I know is, and discovered the cardgame &#8220;who beats who?&#8221; (and realized [...]]]></description>
