    I was a free lance writer for quite a few years, but never fiction. For some reason, fiction is not my forte. I love to read it, but am not the writer of it. LOL Your lens would be very helpful to anyone who wants to write stories and novels, I am sure.

    I think the recipe is a great idea. It helps make my thought process more organizational.

    A great recipe for cooking up a story and the proof is in the publishing of your own novel. Blessed by an Angel.

    Excellent lens and I like the cooking analogy.

    Brilliant take on the assignment!

    What a BRILLIANT twist on this assignment! I think I may print the intro and put it on my fridge. Actually, you should consider using your words on items in a Zazzle gallery and then I could just buy a coffee mug from you and laugh my way through each morning. :)

    OK, now the next book on my wish list is "My Mother's Shoes"! I went to Amazon and read the reviews - WOW now I want a copy. :) Super lens!

    Now aren't you the clever one! This is a neat recipe lens but I think I will put it in the book category of the South Carolina Group.

    Cute -- especially thinking that so long ago you gave up cooking for Lent! Ah, Lent -- I really remember fasting and eating fish on Fridays. Well, hopefully you will dust off your pots and pans and cook something worthy of a lens. ;)

    I loved My Mother's Shoes! And in this lens, you have projected some of that same delightful humor. I write more non-fiction than fiction. Actually have never tried fiction - maybe you will get me going in that direction! You make it sound such fun!

    Clever!
