"Writer's Stew" - My W.I.T. 1/7/10

"Gather the freshest ideas from your garden of creativity. Wash thoroughly to remove any critters lingering on the leaves of your literary brain. Cut into big size chunks (the ideas, not the brain!) Make sure the chunks are large enough to fit in the stewing pot but small enough to get in your mouth. Fill pot with water and season with a variety of carefully chosen spices and herbs, otherwise identified as savory adjectives and sizzling adverbs. Add enough plot structure to give the stew tantalizing meaty stuff. Add choice of pasta or grains to add sufficient character (s) and watch them expand as you stir gently. Bring to a rolling boil and continue boiling until ideas and meats reach desired consistency. Allow to simmer. Substantial simmering is required to blend all the flavors properly, diffuse the yummiest aroma, and temp the taste buds. Once you're sure the stew is finished invite soup experts to sip and sample. Pray they ask for the entire recipe and give rave reviews from at least one top rated NY establishment. Wait patiently until you see your creation printed in the #1 Best Selling book titled Award Winning Recipes for Writers."
