Most of it is just discipline and determination. You write every day, even if you have no motivation. There is no secret sauce, unfortunately, but 80 hour weeks are definitely in the future. Each chapter is maybe half to a quarter of what I actually write before it gets cut down.

I'm no match for pirateaba of the Wandering Inn for example (Hi pirate!) who can do 60 K words in a week, which is just mindboggling to me.

Also beta readers are your best freinds and I would like to take this moment to thank them for putting up with my schedule.
