		<description><![CDATA[When Skyler Lovelace of Pixel Time and I sat down and discussed the idea of an Introduction to Game Development (and a Game Development for Teens class) for Pixel Time, we threw together a quick &#8220;marketing blurb&#8221; on what my accomplishments were.  It was quick and simple: &#8220;Sickmon is a popular speaker at IndieGamesCon, an [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, finally. When I moved the blog, the goal was to start using it quite frequently. That was last year&#8217;s plan, anyway. In fact, I&#8217;ve got stubs of articles written in a folder, but I&#8217;ve just never gotten around to finishing them and recording the podcast.

It&#8217;s been a bit since I&#8217;ve updated it &#8211; mainly because I had the idea of moving it to it&#8217;s own place, wanted to change the visual feel of things, and a million other little tweaks to it.  And just to add to that, [...]]]></description>
