Automatic writing is the alleged process or production of writing material that proponents claim does not come from the conscious thoughts of the writer. Practitioners say that the writer's hand forms the message, with the person being unaware of what will be written. In some cases, it is done by people in an alleged trance state. In others, the writer is aware (not in a trance) of their surroundings but claims not to be aware of the actions of their writing hand.
