Agreed. Not only the author's unique style, should be maintained, but their actual words too. Some mix translation with interpretation which I personally deem presumptuous, at least without marking it as interpretation.

I don’t think so. As much as my characters are in my head and I am in theirs, I am the one who makes them dance.
Not that I think there's anything wrong with 'character led writing', "to each their own" . The protagonists are creations of the author's mind not by some foreign entity after all.
When I first came across 'redaction' , I was baffled. ' Redaktion' is the editing department of newspapers, radio shows, news etc. in German. In English the meaning feels more like hiding something or censoring.
I love coconut milk...maybe I try both.
OMG the cake looks perfect! I have to mix the pumpkin spice from scratch though, it's difficult to get here. Doesn't matter, it's similar to gingerbread spice I guess.
