Yes! This is a thing–having fun at work.
And, as an author, I can say that frequently I do have fun at work.
When something I wrote 5 chapters back suddenly makes perfect sense, and I find I can build off it.
When I’m so angry at someone, I name a villain after that person–then do really bad things to them in the story.
Daydreaming. Because it’s really plotting. Prove it’s not.
Ditto computer solitaire.
Losing oneself in research, because learning new stuff is fun.
The words flowing, and making sense while they do so.
Wearing sweats to work.
