#WritersCoffeeClub June 3: Conversely, what sense is the most difficult for you to write?
Taste. OMG, taste. Which is a pain in the butt, honestly, trying to describe the types of food you have to settle for in space. XD
The problem with taste is that really most of it is smell, but we don't use smell words for taste very often; we compare things to other foods. And, I mean, for a place like Jerako, to skip franchises briefly, something like Oddberry that tastes exactly like passionfruit is impossible to describe as anything but itself in a world that doesn't have passionfruit.
Ethan ends up eating a lot of #2 shmeat, but the only thing you get is that he wasn't impressed, because it's, we'll say, based on a theoretically plausible, but untested process. Like how do you even describe something literally no one on God's green Earth has actually tasted?
