Q: How long did it take for you to write a book?
View
Jenkins—"When I'm on deadline and working all day everyday, I produce 20 pages. If that takes till noon or till midnight, I work till my a lot ted number of pages is done. It takes a day to edit and rewrite too, so you can do the math. That's fairly quick for a novel of this size, but I have the advantage of Dr. LaHaye's biblical framework and expertise, the biblical chronology, etc."
