Neil Turner asked Neil Turner:

How long on average does it take you to write a book?

Neil Turner There are a couple of ways to answer this question. I’m going to answer how long it takes me to write a first draft, leaving aside everything else, such as research, editing, production, marketing, etc. Producing a first draft generally takes me around three months, writing up to six hours daily, six days per week—often more when I’m in the home stretch. If I’m exciting about getting to the end to see how things play out, then I like to think readers will feel the same way. Wishful thinking on occasion, perhaps, but it feels good while it lasts. 😊
