Another Analogy Of Bread And WA
Again? Another Analogy? Will it ever end? No! Well, maybe for the bread and WA ones. Who knows when another one will strike! I was already making plans to bake more bread anyway (stocking top shelf in freezer). This one came to me as I was walking the dog this morning...
Again, bread has nothing to do with WA, unless you happen to have a sandwich while writing. Must...feed...growling...stomach...
And, here is what popped into my mind this morning:
1. Look at recipes = look at topics (ones you've already picked out to write)
2. Check ingredients = Check to see if you have all your information on hand
3. Go to store to get missing ingredients = Do more research
4. Check recipes and ingredients = Check your topics and information
5. Start mixing ingredients = Start writing your posts/articles
6. Put dough in oven = Take a short break to let the ideas settle in your brain (Note: another WA member (KSarton) gave me this idea! So this part is rewritten. Thank you!)
7. Timer dings! Check to make sure bread is done! = Check your articles for mistakes.
8. Slice, wrap and put in freezer = Put your finished articles in a file
Repeat! Continue until you have a nice stock of articles. Take a break. Then repeat the process again. Much like baking, the more you do it the better you get!
Note: The other day I had four small loaves from that recipe. Gave one to my parents. They liked it! And, I can't have the AC going while using the toaster oven. This is morning work before it gets too hot outside.
Note: I didn't know that your Status can change. Mine went from Top Creator to Top Helper.
For those of you who call me a man, I uploaded two photos from 2004. Yes, that's me on the right (before I got dentures), and yes, that man was my husband.

Love analogies :) for #6 you could equate it to taking a small break from writing to let the ideas settle in your brain, so that when you do #7 (check mistakes & such) you come with a fresh perspective :)
