Taking a perfectly good sentence you've written and making it better. I was writing about a Fourth of July fireworks celebration and wrote, "I wondered how many millions of dogs were hiding under their masters' beds tonight." In the rewrite, that became "I imagined millions of dogs quivering under their masters' beds." The satisfaction I got from that lasted for days.
