« Merrily, we roll along, roll along, roll along. Merrily, we roll along… »
Sometimes, you just have one of those days or even several days, where everything falls into place. You’re alert and attuned to the page — and words seem to flow like honey. What writerly bliss!
Let’s fully embrace every wondrous moment in our writing life:
Enjoy it: First and foremost, enjoy the fruits of your labor! You’ve surely worked hard in order to reap a period of rich and productive creativity. Savor it! Soak it all in, so you can summon up moments of ease, when your mind was humming and words were flowing in days ahead.
Be grateful: Take a few moments throughout the day to give thanks for this expression of abundance in your life. The muses have smiled upon you and given you a gift. Just as we all do, they enjoy being appreciated.
Make a joyful noise: Let your friends know that you’re on a roll! We all find comfort from our writing buddies when we hit a dry spell. It’s equally important to share creative abundance! A rising tide lifts all boats — your good fortune can give your writer friends a boost.
Don’t try to analyze it: When you’re on a creative roll, it’s tempting to try to figure out how you got there so you can do it again. If there was a formula, we’d know about it! Just keep working, buoyed by the promise that more richly satisfying creativity lies ahead if you keep going.
Creative Joy and Abundance are so nourishing! They can sustain us over many a rough patch. Have you ever experienced a truly satisfying bout of creative energy? I’d love to hear about it as we all write on!
