Word Nourishment


When you think of word nourishment, what comes to mind?  Does your writing involve all your senses and include the richness of imagery?  If so, you nurture others with this style of writing.  They become fed by having the ability to move into the sensory world you have created. 

Readers will recall the great chef you became and the food of words you offered.  Their stomachs will fill as taste buds tingle.

Consider meals you have spent with family and friends. Focus on the details of outdoor cooking time in the summer. Recall the sizzle of meat upon the grill, tang in the air that floated barbecue sauce and sweet scents to the table.  Have you tried to prepare ethnic dishes from around the world? Many experiences nourish a life of words and food.

Recipes inspire word usage in condensed forms.  If you read and follow the directions, cooking flows easily.  Similar to writing, you can ad lib and add to taste also.  That's the fun of a free flow of words and fixing a meal.

Write about cooking and spice it up.
