Why Does It Take So Long For Your Book To Come Out If You've Already Written It?

Book2Book Tuesday 07 July 2015

Coming from an online publishing background ("Never wrong for long..." "The client wants their advertorial up yesterday..." "Copy and paste! Copy and paste!" and so on) sometimes the pace of book publishing really stops me in my tracks.

I mean, literally, there are pauses in the process where I feel ridiculously idle because there's nothing for me to do. And you know what? I like it. I like the attention to detail, the many, many layers of editorial scrutiny, the luxury of a whole team of people working on making my book that absolute best that it can be. Getting it right first time, rather than just getting it online first.
