positive affect
flow

Answer 1

flow

Step-by-step explanation:

"Flow" is a term used to refer to the act or effect of flowing, moving continuously. This word also refers to the succession of events, a great deal of facts, ideas or actions. The situations that can exemplify the concept of flow are the constant flow of fluids in a conduit, the continuous traffic of cars or people on a street, the circulation of materials, etc. In Carson's case the flow of ideas for his mystery stories and the flow of written words make him lose track of time and continue writing until dawn.
