		<title>Front Cover</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Don&#8217;t you just love to play around with photoshop and see what happens? Well, today I decided to have a go at making a front cover for EverWayward.

		<title>Bonjour!</title>

I originally set out to create just a private blog for myself, to keep up with my novel, but now I have decided to provide information generally in the world of writing, with today as an exception.

So yes, today I made this place! I had a few troubles at first. I didn't understand MySQL databases and all that, which were all important for this blog, but I am getting there!

In terms of my novel, well there isn't much to tell today. I need to write up some notes I threw together last night and try and get to the 21000 word mark.
