It's three-to-Four am starts, a lot of writing before dawn (I am currently on my first chapter of the day. It's slow going today because I have a touch of a headache) I try to get two do every day. And a lot of work is already written. The Charlie books, releasing a the same time, are already finished through book IV. This one is finished as well, it's sitting at 20 chapters... the next one is the one I am working on, I am on chapter 23... up to our neck in mud during the Siege of Antioch... I've pushed a bit hard this weekend, but it pays off. I love just tapping away at all hours, I sleep a little in the afternoon, then relax in the evening before sleep then up to do it again. I have nothing else on, and this keeps me from going insane.
