		<title>3 Little Pigs: Process at Work</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, this is a fun little thing that I thought I&#8217;d dust off and finally show people. Some time last year, my friend Paul Montgomery, as part of his writing duties on the website, iFanboy.com, made a creative challenge &#8212; to adapt a fable in comics form. Write, draw, whatever. I didn&#8217;t think I had [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Creative Life: The Writer Question</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This post was originally published on Murmur.com. Last week I talked about my road from creative writing to an audio drama podcast. A bit of a twisty road, but it&#8217;s an interesting one. Obviously, the common link is story. If you know me at all, you know I&#8217;m all about the story. If you don&#8217;t, [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Monkeyshines79&#8243; in Grok #6</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Man, there sure are a lot of cobwebs in here&#8230; So, I&#8217;m looking to revamp the blog and hopefully dust it off and get some more current content on here. The truth is I&#8217;ve been very busy with Wormwood: Revelation and various other creative projects, and this blog is really sort of a portfolio for [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Wrote a Novel in November</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just because I feed the need to share it: I wrote a novel entitled &#8220;Red Right Hand&#8221; during the month of November, as part of National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo. I actually wrote very regularly and was more disciplined and productive in a sustained manner than I usually am. My NaNo Stats: Pretty cool, [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Creative Life: Audio, Amigos!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the summer of 1998, I moved to Los Angeles from the Northern California Bay Area. As a writer and recent college graduate, it would be a fair assumption that I moved to LA to pursue a Hollywood career. This would be inaccurate. In truth, I moved to Los Angeles because my girlfriend at the time was originally from the San Fernando Valley, and she wanted to be closer to her family again. I was a writer in need of an adventure. And, oh, I would write -- but not screenplays. No, I was a fan of stories like Nathanael West's The Day of the Locust. I was a poet, dammit, not a crass commercial hack. Los Angeles would be the setting for my Great American Novel Which Observes LA from an Outsider's Perspective. It was thus that I descended upon the city of angels with all the fervor of a budding anthropologist. The denizens of Hollywood would be my Gorillas in the Mist.]]></description>

		<title>I Had a Strange Dream Last Night</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had a very strange dream last night. In it, my girlfriend and I are walking along a very dark city street. There are no lights from the street. There is no moon in the sky. Everything consists of shapes of blue and black. We are returning from somewhere; I don’t know where. We come [...]]]></description>

		<title>23 years later, it’s 1986 again.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is not a review of the film Watchmen. I’m a bit late on that account, and I’ve shared my thoughts on discussion threads and on Twitter, so my views are already published in one form or another. But I want to talk about Watchmen, and how I think that – oddly enough – the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Brief Explanation.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently lost my blog, &#8220;Hey That&#8217;s Dave&#8217;s Blog&#8221; to a hack attack. It now resides in the web-equivalent of Davy Jones&#8217; Locker with my previous blogs, including &#8220;Pointless&#8221; and &#8220;The Inevitable Column.&#8221; However, I&#8217;ve used this malicious attack on my innocent blog to &#8212; in the immortal words of Oscar Goldman &#8212; &#8220;make it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Violent Movies Ain&#8217;t So Bad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This short script was part of an anthology series of short films to be developed by Habit Forming Films. The theme was “Whiskey, Gun, Cigarette” and each script was required to contain those elements. Sometimes a little violence is a good thing.
