 <title>Thanks for waiting</title>
 <link>http://www.redroom.com/blog/lauraessendine/thanks-waiting</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m finally finished with my first draft of The Accidental Guru and am hurtling into the second whilst all my mental notes on the revision are fresh in my mind. Luckily, I can see where cuts need to be made and this will hopefully speed up the process.   It&#039;s been so long since I started it, I&#039;ve forgotten a great deal of the scenes I&#039;d written so I&#039;ve gone back to it as a reader rather than as a ...&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Any Brits out there?</title>
 <link>http://www.redroom.com/blog/lauraessendine/any-brits-out-there</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Just a quick appeal to see if there are any UK authors out there, particularly the London area.   It would be good to network/swap ideas.   Would it be worth starting a club for the Brit Pack?&lt;/p&gt;
