We recommend writing and publishing a book that’s 35,000words or less (about 150 pages). Shorter books are easier to read and less expensive to print.
20-24 hours a week is recommended. Call it 3 hours a day. The first 3 months are when most of the time is spent writing. After that, it’s back and forth between you and the editors to refine. I most definitely had late nights and weekends to hit my own deadlines but it was SO worth it to have my book in my hands after 6 months… and the rest of my life!
