Kitchen of a Desperate Writer is intended to be a humorous word-play. As writers, we are often told that our writings are too plain and we need to spicy them up. So I decided to marinate my failed manuscripts with the wishes for miracles. Figurative languages are often interesting because of the parallels we draw between more abstract topics and the everyday lives we embodied ourselves in.
