Today’s tip – A poetic musing offered by a current student of mine – Milda Vaivada
Writing a Book is like cooking a Meal!
You need great recipes (story) to make yummy dishes.
A meal your guests (readers) will want to eat (read).
A perfect blend of interesting flavors (details)..never bland or boring (dull).
Not too sweet, not too sour, not too bitter, not too salty, and not too complicated to digest!
Lots of texture, keep it interesting…a few crunchy surprises in the mix to engage the taste buds – so your guests are not tempted to skip to dessert (the end).
Good to the last bite (page) and most importantly, worth the calories (AKA time).
Always leave your guests satisfied, enlivened, feeling nurtured, and wanting to come back for more!
Enjoy!
