"which few did you have in mind, majesty" - surely is a line I'll use during work hours, having faced situations similar.
Regarding Le Bernardin's, I've decided I'll need to be taken, not go. Maybe Kevin.
The only heckle I have pertains to the liberties you've taken with your spellings of the earl of grey. Referring to the earl of the house of Grey, liberties I would have taken not, Joukovski-san.
I had to look up coffered in contrast to crownly molded, thinking there was an intent there. I thought that was quite sly.
My husband and I are stopping in NYC on the way to our honeymoon destination. I snagged some reservations at Rezdora and cannot wait. Thank you for the heads up about the pasta tasting!!!
To have the choice to take two years for you write your book, or six months for the world to read ?
Difficulty ? or do you mean for an idea to hatch ? if you have a plan, and outline, and it is clear in the mind, there is not difficulty to pen your thoughts -- the first draft is all you need, before the final polish. Recently, I heard my author friend do fifteen drafts for his autobiography, this is insane. Is he changing his mind every draft, is he seeking perfection ? does he think he has all the time in the world ?
I have always liked to try or discover 'different creative processes which yields optimum results with less drudge, if possible.We do after all evolve - are we the same person we were six months ago ? No, life experiences , learning new things; readings, experimentation etc, thinking outside the square, cross pollinating can create new possibilities. Sitting all day at an escritoire feels like you are chained to your desk and we need to bust that myth or mimetic behavior about writers.
We now know that hard work and sweat is ad illusion -- well documented atudies.
I personally know it is an illusion, for instance when you in the zone- it is the flow ( Mihaly Robert Csikszentmihaly famous book : Flow ,I compose music or write short stories effortlessly without stress and freedom than when sitting down and trying to write or compose. Never works for me and surprisingly my output is much more prolific - something to be said of insouciance and nonchalance.
I knew it , I could tell ...there was no doubt about it NJ you were brewing a new work. You can't stop now. I reckon the novel will write itself with your sprezzatura - how do you do it ? LOL
I loved the sets in the new Zauberflöte!
Fair!

Those majesties can be such a bother! If you ever need a break from composition, it seems you have a gift for copy editing

Hi NJ,
For me,
I have always liked to try or discover 'different creative processes which yields optimum results with less drudge, if possible.We do after all evolve - are we the same person we were six months ago ? No, life experiences , learning new things; readings, experimentation etc, thinking outside the square, cross pollinating can create new possibilities.

Personally not interested in optimization when it comes to art—the desk time is a choice, and the difficulty a delight

in the creative process.
I’m my experience, flow and sweat are not mutually exclusive!
AH !
I knew it , I could tell ...there was no doubt about it NJ you were brewing a new work. You can't stop now. I reckon the novel will write itself with your sprezzatura - how do you do it ? LOL
best wishes for your productivity
Sprezzatura is an illusion…before the gates of excellence, the high gods have placed SWEAT
(and thank you)
