		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Finish the damn thing first,&#8221; my inner voice screamed within the confines of my skull. &#8220;Edit later.&#8221;
It&#8217;s good advice. I should get the first draft done before I go back to the beginning and put on my editor&#8217;s hat. Writer&#8217;s hat and editor&#8217;s hat are two different things, ya know.
