Vicky and Joe talk about all the water in their house and get far more excited than you probably are about their new loft space. It's so middle-aged it's painful. And then—you'll get a rundown of how long it might take you to write your nonfiction book! No BS, no false promises, no conveniently leaving out details that take bloody ages... just a realistic timeline to aim for. Enjoy!

Key Takeaways:

[4:35] Joe fell through the ceiling at the Dingle! Ouch!

[9:00] How long will it take to write a nonfiction book?

[11:10] If you write everyday…well Vicky did some math calculations for you!

[15:25] Where do you start when it comes to writing your book?

[17:10] If you want to write the best possible book in the world, you need to be able to know what the opposition's points are.

[20:00] Sometimes writing involves just starting out at a window.
