That's when I know the writing is true and inedlible. This can happen at any point during the process, too. During the final revision of Yellowstone: The Bears of Caldera, I needed to add a moment between two characters whom I felt didn't have enough interaction. At this point, I was already well inside their heads, so I simply opened a conversation and let them talk to each other. Now, I know that it's coming from me, but when I'm fully in that place, the zone, the characters speak for themselves and surprise me. It ended with a line from Arthur the tarantula that made me laugh out loud. The little spider cracked me up. "This is it," I thought. "I don't know where this came from, but this is pure."(less)
