FWIW, it's not uncommon for writers to have the experience
of what they write coming *through* them from "somewhere"
else, almost as if they were taking dictation.

I'm not a writer, but I've had that experience a couple
of times; several of my writer clients have had it.

With one of my clients, every once in a while as I'm
editing his work, I'll come upon a really rough patch
and find myself effortlessly rewriting it, even adding
stuff that should have been there but isn't.

He's always thrilled when I do that.  I kid him by
telling him that for some reason his muse wasn't able
to get through to him when he was writing the part I
fixed, so she contacted me instead when I was editing
it and gave me what she couldn't get him to receive.

I'm not entirely sure there isn't something to that.
