Well Said: An Exciting Sort of Explosion in My Mind

From my quote journal.

But there's this -- I know that in my work, I don't get very far forward unless there comes a moment when everything suddenly rushes together in an exciting sort of an explosion in my mind. Your uncle and the others -- they must have times like that, or they couldn't do what they do. But it's awfully hard to describe. So they fake it, and say what they think people want to hear.

Diana Wynne Jones, Deep Secret

These are words from a fictional character. However, given the setting, which is at a science fiction convention, I think that the author is describing what she herself feels. And I know that even in writing plain old nonfiction those same moments come. When the sentences and ideas and way of expressing oneself on paper come together in a whoosh that is supremely exciting and satisfying.
