			<title>Price of Loving (What We're Running From)</title>
			<description>It's a lot easier to read when it's set t the music I'm writing, but for now, this is a song about wanderlust, what pushes one into it, and its detriments to introverted and intertwined souls.</description>

Chances are you were still disappointed when someone from your family came home. And chances are there have been times when you thought you were home alone and you weren't a..</description>

			<title>Chapter 5 - Poetry</title>

Not in the way that I had to sit back and just think of all the philosophical and realistic knots included in sonder, but in the way that I had to think, &amp;ldquo;These things are suppos..</description>

			<title>Chapter 3 - Beginning</title>
			<description>You know how a lot of stories tend to ramble on in the beginnings (cough&amp;nbsp;Dickens&amp;nbsp;cough cough) and then it's, like, chapter 3 when things really start happening? Lucky for you this isn't one of those stories. Or unlucky, I suppose, depending on your point of view. A lot of important things ..</description>

			<description>Blake decided to spend the night. Lisa decided that, too, but unfortunately for her her parents care a little bit more about what she does. (Speculate about&amp;nbsp;that.) Nobody said otherwise, and my mother and grandmother were alerted to it, and so when Lisa went home at eleven - she really did try ..</description>

			<title>Chapter 1 - Enthusiast</title>
			<description>Okay, so you've suffered through about three thousand words that haven't really told you anything about any of the characters ecxept me. Which is kind of pointless because I'm not that important to the story. I'm just the one who's writing it down. But, because one of the main rules of writing is Sh..</description>

			<title>Prologue</title>
			<description>The thing about telling stories is that, more often than not, people start in the middle when they think they&amp;rsquo;re starting at the beginning, and have to retreat back a couple steps for what happens later to make sense. Sometimes they&amp;rsquo;ll get to the climax of their story and then realize th..</description>
