Julia asked Lara Lillibridge:

how long does it take for you to write? a book and chapter and also whats your favorite book that you would read for the rest of your life?

Lara Lillibridge It really depends on the material and how often I get distracted. My goal is to write 1,000 words at a stretch, which can be done in two hours most days. Some days I write and delete over and over and come up with only a few hundred words. Somedays I throw out everything I wrote the day before. Favorite books are hard. Here are some books I've read multiple times and still cherish:
"The Hobbit" by JRR Tolkien
"Written on the Body" by Jeanette Winterson
"Chronology of Water" by Lidia Yuknavitch
"The Body" by Jenny Boully
