For all the wonderful creatives out there, I know you will understand this more than anyone, when you've found your unicorn, you just know!
Artists, actors, musicians, and writers; we all go through the same creative processes with love, time, and dedication to produce our best work for the world to enjoy. The most successful times are when we are lost in the moment, the world around us has stopped and nothing else is in focus but the task ahead. These are the unicorn moments! These are the moments we all wish for, when our craft comes straight from our soul and is effortless. The most wonderful part is, that it's often not until after the event, that we realise it was effortless, because we didn't think, and everything lined up exactly as it was meant to.
I have several manuscripts collated for children's short stories, rhyming books or poems and I am proud of every one of them as a journey, a learning experience, and a creative process. Each one will bear fruit in its own way - as part of my self-discovery or hopefully, for a wider audience to also enjoy and grow with. Nevertheless, I also know that there are a couple of unicorns in there too. I can sense it whilst I'm writing because I am in the zone, and nothing can disturb my train of thought. I am gliding along the smooth tracks with no signals, no distractions, and no dark tunnels ahead, the journey is clear, and it is full steam ahead!
I'd love to hear if you have ever experienced this creative effortless feeling and what it is that you do.
