Fun writing? Ha! I signed the contract to write the book at the end of June 
1999 -- and the deadline for the completed 250,000-word, illustrated book 
was the end of July 1999. And I hit the deadline. Much coffee consumed 
that month.

(I'd rather do it that way, though, than take a year or two to write a 
book -- because I cannot in a year make a book 12 times as good as one 
made in a month. And the books I've written before and since then each 
took a month to write, though some took longer than that to research.)
