What was author Annasaheb's process for writing the Shri Sai Satcharita?

Annasaheb wrote the Shri Sai Satcharita by the command of Shri Samarth Sadguru Sai Baba Maharaj. His process, as described in Chapter 0, involved gathering stories and experiences and then presenting them in a "poetic, attractive, and beautiful garment with his graceful and succulent voice." A significant portion of the content came from his own firsthand observations of Baba's Leelas. For other stories, he relied on the experiences that devotees shared with him, which they had either in person or in dreams. The text also notes his particular habit of writing chapters on slips of paper.
