		<description><![CDATA[There's a kind of archaeology in the editing process.  Having finished a rough first draft of The Last Monk about three weeks ago, I've spent much of the intervening time reading and re-reading the entire manuscript, picking out everything from typos and bad grammar, through inelegant sentence structure to the high-end narrative and character lines which should drive the book.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As promised, <a href='http://matlarkin.com/images/tlm_extract_fitzgeraldhouse2.pdf' title=''>here is the second part of the Fitzgerald House extract</a>.  It's shorter than the first and takes up the story from Mr. Peabody's angle.  Kate has fled, so there is no one to say whether what is about to happen is real or entirely the product of Peabody's fractured mind.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I've posted the first installment of a new, two-part <a href='http://matlarkin.com/images/tlm_extract_fitzgeraldhouse1.pdf' title=''>extract</a> from <em>The Last Monk</em>, which introduces the hottest young tea-cosy in modern Australian literature.  As always, feel free to hand it around, comment on it or print it for use as the raw materials of a complex origami moose.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some days aren't that newsworthy:   the most interesting thing to happen today was a ten-minute search of various reference texts to answer the question:  'trench-coats' or 'trench coats'?  Although I found the answer, I think it's safe for me to leave you hanging over this one.  You'll simply have to buy the book to find out.]]></description>
