“Cooking requires confident guesswork and improvisation--experimentation
and substitution, dealing with failure and uncertainty in a creative way.” ~ Paul Theroux
The word
substitution always makes me think of cooking and teachers. Not of cooking
teachers, not unless something has gone horribly wrong between the classroom
and the kitchen. So, when our dearest Rommy recommended substitutions
for this week’s optional prompt, I wondered what you and your muse would cook
up for us to read. * No teacher
should be cooked for this prompt. Really. I mean it! 🤨
Add
the direct link to your response to Mister Linky, please. One post per participant.
369 words maximum (excluding title), for prose and for poetry. Share old
or new pieces of poetry or prose. Write to the prompt or to a topic of your
choosing. Visit other poets and storytellers. Comment on their words.
for next week, Rosemary will ask us to answer the question, ‘What soothes you?’
