I wrote 45 pages in about 24 hours late last week. Unfortunately, that work wasn’t on my novel. Instead, I stoked my creative fire pits to blazing on behalf of my sermon-writing.
These efforts including my first full-length sermon, as well as a Torah commentary, and while this sort of writing can go quite a bit faster than novel-writing, it’s still quite an effort to complete 45 or so pages in that kind of time span under any circumstances.
The last time I can remember being that productive in such a short stretch was when I completed the novel for my master’s degree, back in college, when I wrote over 200 pages of material in about a week.
