Casseroles--along with admonition not to write one
It's a very busy day with festival research, a bit of vacuuming, online shopping, writing and other tasks. Fridays are usually a sort of casserole, with layers of this or that. This might include things from the cabinet or cupboard, leftovers, sauces, spices and basic ingredients that contribute to satiety and flavor. I'm not certain this translates into the whole idea of writing or of treating your novel like a casserole. There may be some parallels, but sometimes one can take these things too far. Then there's that whole question of heat and how the whole conglomeration can end up undercooked or burnt. Maybe it would be best to sign off for now and wish you all a good weekend. And eat something. You'll feel better.
