Feasting on When Creativity Strikes in the Middle of the Night by Libby Shively McAvoy

Last night, I woke up several times and found myself crafting fully-formed articles in my mind. It felt as though I’d tapped into an extraordinary, almost divine, creative flow — vivid and electric. The ideas seemed brilliant — poems and thoughts that poured forth effortlessly, fully realized. Yet, I was too exhausted to rise and capture them. I assured myself I would remember them come morning, but now they’re slipping away, like dreams dissolving in the first light of dawn. Libby Shively McAvoy
