"First novel, took 7 years to write. Not published.  Second novel, one year to write, one year to edit, published, selling modestly.  Now going back and hacking/editing/gutting the first novel.  It is not one size fits all but anything that lights the fire is good.  And it has been a fun road mostly...except for those stretches of hating the words on the page and going cross-eyed from the blinky bastard little cursor.  Oh, the writer's life."
