		<title>Why Lavinia Doesn&#8217;t Get Laid, or, Ruminations on Sex in Romance Novels</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had sex on my mind a lot lately. No, not that way (well&#8230;ahem).

		<title>I&#8217;m Now on Tumblr</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just because I didn&#8217;t have enough social media whatchamathingies to keep me busy, I&#8217;ve also signed up for a Tumblr blog. Actually, the idea of Tumblr appeals to me a good deal, just because I find that lots of things catch my eye, but posting about them here or on Facebook or Twitter just doesn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Heart of Gold Is Now Available!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am so happy to announce that my latest full-length novel, Heart of Gold, has now been released!
