2026 is my year of trying to streamline my processes. I am trying to get faster at producing my cozy romance books from idea to publishing. Currently it is taking me about 30 hours to complete a book. Yes, I know I'm slower than most but I need to learn to automate better and I always get hung up on the editing (a very unpleasant task) and book covers (but I'm working on improving all of this). I am keen to learn how long it is taking others on average. What's achievable? It will inspire me to improve my practice this year! 🙂
