		<title>Photos from a Zapruder poet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I hope this works! I&#8217;ve embedded a slideshow of 40 or so photographs on this site, it is my first attempt at being gizmotivated on a blog. Thanks to everyone in Zapruder&#8217;s workshop and the institute in kind this summer. I had a productive and memorable time in Amherst. Best of luck to all! Cheers, [...]]]></description>

		<title>So many books, so little time.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I realized early this week that I don&#8217;t read enough. I&#8217;m impressed with how much stuff my workshop classmates have read and analyzed, and seeing how that knowledge fuels class discussions really emphasizes how important the reading process is for improving my own writing. So I haven&#8217;t been writing much this week &#8212; I&#8217;ve been [...]]]></description>

		<title>Great first day.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today was the first full day of Q&#38;A&#8217;s, workshops, etc., and it was a blast. I had a great time at the Mark Doty/Grace Paley reading Sunday night and enjoyed the extended Q&#38;A with Paley this morning. Lunch and the first workshop session followed (mine is with Joy Williams) &#8212; we have a great bunch [...]]]></description>
