Then its five to ten hours a day, five to seven days a week. On creative writing, and you can include these diaries into that count, I maybe spend 45 minutes to an hour a day. Really long diaries, like this one and the Springsteen one, are usually written piecemeal, I add a bit here and there, a few minutes at a time, over the course of a couple days. This one was a little unusual in that I wanted to hunt up some of the old books again. If you count that "research" - walking to the library and back - you add an hour or so to "writing" time.
