		<description><![CDATA[In a video that I was linked to a couple of days ago, world-famous author Stephen King discusses why he thinks people don't tend to read short stories anymore. Since I've been writing so much short fiction recently, and since I plan to write a lot more of it over the next year, I found [...]]]></description>
