		<description><![CDATA[(first line from Stephen King&#8217;s Wizard and Glass.) Today&#8217;s story is inspired by nothing more than the title: Exquisite Corpse.  For no particular reason, I woke up this morning with this title in my head.  (The term exquisite corpse refers to a collective poem or work of art, made by several people.) I also woke [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Although this isn&#8217;t the first line, it is among the first pages of Haruki Murakami&#8217;s Wind Up Bird Chronicle. The genesis of this story is simple: our good friend, Brodie, has told us on several occasions that Amanda and I have a ghost cat living in our apartment.  Admittedly, I have never seen the ghost [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is the first line from J.R.R. Tolkien&#8217;s book, The Hobbit (which was written specifically for children, by the way, unlike his later, six-book saga). For a while now, a few years I&#8217;d say, I&#8217;ve been wanting to write a book of fantasy stories for children.  I don&#8217;t mean fantasy strictly in terms of the [...]]]></description>
