Hi,

Not knocking anyone's personal process here (definitely not looking in Mr. Butcher's direction or implying I'm was waiting for #16 two days after #15 came out), just asking a question ...

I somehow got the impression that series writers stayed ahead of their publishing schedule and that was how they maintained a regular output of new work. The long wait for Skin Game went a long way towards disabusing me of that. Does anyone know if book-to-book is the norm for authors or was I correct and things just go sideways for them sometimes? Or is it one of those everyone's-an-individual-and-I-shouldn't-try-to quantify-them concepts?

Thanks,
John
