From what I've read in books and articles on writing that published authors have written I think you have hit the nail on the head bobavey. It's likely that even well established authors can't put into words how they go about writing a book. There are just too many variables that go into how a given book went from an initial idea to a finished and published manuscript. And many of those variables probably only occur in the writer's mind on an almost subconscious level. Something just feels right about how this event or that one plays out etc.
