Britni Pepper asked Jonathan Weiss:

Good to meet you yesterday. Your books look great! Looking forward to your continuing success. How long does it take you to get a book published from blank page to sparkling on the shelf?

Jonathan Weiss Thank you! It used to be a lot slower, but these days if I'm on a roll, the turn around can be around 10 months. I've been going a bit slower this year with a lot of events and the like to attend, but that's generally the timeline I aim for. But don't worry, I'm not skipping any important steps like outlining or editing! I'm able to use the time where one book is resting (such as being with the editor or the proofreader) to work on another, so I'm always working on two books at once, effectively.
