From Fancyclopedia 1, ca. 1944
Making up what you are saying as you type the stencil. The expression comes from hand-set printing, where the letters for each line are thrust into a "stick". A great deal of the contents of individ fanzines and editorials in other fmz are composed "in the stick", without dummying.
