		<description><![CDATA[As the New Year begins, it&#8217;s a good time to reflect on the past year and see if there are things I&#8217;ve learned that I can apply to my life in the days, months, and years to come.

		<description><![CDATA[I get the daily e-mail from Daily Writing Tips, so I can keep up with what&#8217;s going on in the world of writing (the technical world of grammar and word use, that is, not the world of authors and such).
