Use Your Writer’s Crock Pot to Create Ravishing Offerings
A Writers’ Most Useful Culinary Tool
“That was soooo good. It was supreeme. It was almost like being at home, in my mama’s kitchen. I wish I could go back to those good old times. Could I have some more of that? Pleease?”
Does your writing spark that sense of home? And ignite that insatiable desire for more?
Writing has often been called a culinary delight. A delightful meal that satiates readers’ hunger for that just-made in mama’s kitchen, so-good feeling.
And you can get readers to experience that feeling, that desire for more, when you use your writing crock-pot. A writer’s crock pot is the most useful culinary tool. For that CROCK pot creates the most Captivating and Ravishing Offerings Cooked up in your writing Kitchen.
But you must cook up a recipe that reader’s wil voraciously overeat. And you must use a secret hot sauce recipe that attracts specific readers. Plus, your ingredients must be the most succulent, juicy, and tantalizing words you can come up with. And your recipe book is your dictionary and your thesaurus. (I use a rhyming dictionary.)
A Scintillating Stew
Personally, I like to cook up a scintillating batch of beef stew. For my mama’s stew was the best stew I’ve ever eaten. But, then, my mama cooked her stew on the stove, watching over it for hours, guarding it judiciously so it wouldn’t burn.
Nowadays, everyone takes the easy way out. Especially writers. You just throw some ingredients in your writing crock pot. But first you choose a recipe for stew, a story that teases with exotic weirdness. One that’s so weird it’s never been tested out or tasted before.
You throw all the ingredients in together and then you let them simmer. But you don’t completely forget about it. You go back to it often and check it out. To see if your stew is any good. So, you sample taste it, eagerly weighing its effect to delight.
And if it’s the least little bit funky, you switch a tarty experience for a more wickedly edible delight.
Because your entire purpose is to serve tasty eclectic words that are enjoyable delicacies. And you never want the reader to get that screwed feeling. You always want to serve your readers the experience of stewed emotion, the satisfying taste of ecstasy we eternally dream about.
Chili con Corny
If you’re like me, you also like to cook up a batch of chili sometimes. So, you throw in some good, ground up beef … some backyard excitement, some edgy fact. And then throw in some stewed tomatoes, stories that twist expectations into wild-eyed delectables.
You add some chili spices that people crave. Like captivatingly hot, irresistible legacy-making images.
And maybe even some totally corny hunger-inducing but luscious imaginings.
And add some water, some wildly adventurous and tempting experience for them to ruminate on. (But not enough to water down the original tasty story.)
And you let is simmer until the juices all mix together in a mouth-watering delirium of expectancy.
And when it’s ready to eat, you serve your piping hot meal with a hot brew … and it turns out to be the best recipe ever wrangled up in a writer’s crock pot.
Readers gobble it up with gusto. And then ask, “more, pleease?”
