					<description><![CDATA[Dear Friends, I am going to discontinue the blog portion of this website. I have found it harder and harder to keep up with the blog, and the interest in (and blogs in general) simultaneously flagging. I think it is better to not do something than to do it poorly. I am no longer able &#8230; <br><br><a class="more-link" href="https://kurtisscaletta.com/2017/08/08/de-blogging/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Over the last few nights I read classic book The Little Prince to Byron. I had offered to read it numerous times and he always protested, but I wore him down. He listened patiently and quietly. He commented on the pictures but rarely the text. However, last night he didn&#8217;t want me to stop reading and &#8230; <br><br><a class="more-link" href="https://kurtisscaletta.com/2016/12/03/the-little-prince/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[When I was a kid my brothers and I lived in constant fear of our father&#8217;s rages. Something like a little spilled ketchup on the counter would set him off and he&#8217;d yell at one of us or all of us for an hour or more. No exaggeration: we would time his rants and kept records.

					<description><![CDATA[In author circles, particularly those writing fantasy and science-fiction, there&#8217;s a lot of talk about &#8220;world building,&#8221; which I visualize as writing ad-hoc descriptions of physical and political structures. (I know world building is more than that; I can&#8217;t help what I visualize.) So I now use the expression &#8220;culture building&#8221; knowing that &#8220;world building&#8221; encompasses &#8230; <br><br><a class="more-link" href="https://kurtisscaletta.com/2015/09/11/the-murdock-67-advice-on-culture-building/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Forget what you&#8217;ve read and/or assume about Go Set a Watchman. It is not a &#8220;first draft&#8221; of To Kill a Mockingbird. And while it may not narrowly meet the definition of sequel, it sure reads like one: a new story, set decades later, with most of the same characters. Indeed, it really feels like the writer of this book assumes &#8230; <br><br><a class="more-link" href="https://kurtisscaletta.com/2015/07/15/go-set-a-record-straight/">Continue reading</a>]]></description>
