   It means that Vera can make up a good story in a moment's notice, or very quickly. She has just demonstrated this quality by telling Nuttel the story of "The Open Window" and again when she is asked why Nuttel left so quickly. She lies and makes up stories that she tells to other people just to amuse herself. She does not seem to care about the consequences of her fictional work on others. Poor Nuttel is driven insane but Vera simply goes on and makes up another story.
