From here on, this is where I’ll publish longer pieces I want to keep in one place, instead of leaving them scattered across notes and documents.</p>

<p>A few things about how the site works:</p>

<ul>
  <li><strong>Every article is on the front page</strong>, newest first. Use the search bar (or press <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">/</code>) to find one by title or topic.</li>
  <li><strong>Topics</strong> groups articles by tag, and the <strong>Archive</strong> lists them by year.</li>
  <li><strong>To get new articles as they’re published</strong>, subscribe to the <a href="/Articles/feed.xml">RSS feed</a>.</li>
</ul>

<p>Thanks for reading.</p>]]></content><author><name>Robert McFarlin</name></author><category term="site" /><summary type="html"><![CDATA[A new home for my writing — what you'll find here and how to follow along.]]></summary></entry></feed>
