Unless the story is about something the writer knows nothing about then there shouldn’t be hard facts throughout the story. The research that might need to be put in a story should be incorporated in the story not stated in it. If a list of facts interrupts the flow of the story it loses the flow of it.

The main reason someone is reading the piece of writing is for the story of it not the facts about it.

If I were able to present a gift to Stephan King it would rehab earlier in his life, his drug addiction caused him to write many of his stories without him remembering the creative process.
