  <description><![CDATA[  The candles have guttered down into two puddles, and Ellie is fighting sleep as she melts deeper into Cole's lap. Marina's two girls and Sam are piled up in front of the television in the other room in various states of wakefulness. People have had so much beer and wine and dessert, they are now telling backyard chicken stories. Of which there are more than one might expect here in the 21st century.<br /><br />[<a href="http://www.slate.com/id/2227201/entry/0/?from=rss">more ...</a>]  ]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[  It's Friday. I have just posted Chapter 16. My day job, covering the Supreme Court, starts Monday. By every measure, I have failed to meet my deadline. Writing a novel in three weeks = beyond my abilities. But thanks to the extraordinary team of whittlers, elves, and shoemakers on Facebook, and the hundreds of e-mailers, I have every confidence that we will get this thing finished in the coming weeks. I am in it as long as you are in it, and in hindsight this would have been a wretched, lonely, and impossible task without you. One of my favorite Facebook posts of the last week came from a man wondering out loud "what a crowd sourced boy-lit novel would be like. The author would be throwing out questions like 'Hunter is just about to ambush the approaching Iraqi insurgents. What weapon do you guys think he should use first? I was think mk16. But is that too obvious?' "<br /><br />[<a href="http://www.slate.com/id/2228956/?from=rss">more ...</a>]  ]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[  Next month, I will start covering my 10th Supreme Court term for Slate. That seems an apt time for some very serious reflection. Or maybe not. When we were told to take time off from our everyday beats to do some kind of ambitious, long-form journalism, my first instinct naturally was to do something legal. Then I thought I'd like to do the hardest thing I could imagine. Which is writing a novel and filing it chapter by chapter as I go. And that's what I'm going to do, with you watching and helping. And I'm going to try to finish in less than four weeks.<br /><br />[<a href="http://www.slate.com/id/2227430/?from=rss">more ...</a>]  ]]></description>
