Interview #46: Twitter: AMOL Writing and Editing Process, Entry #35

Brandon Sanderson (17 September 2011)

Sorry for the lack of updates and replies on Facebook/Twitter lately, folks. Been working hard on your book. Seven weeks until my deadline…

BRANDON SANDERSON

Granted, that’s a deadline I set for myself, so it can move if I feel it needs to. I’d still like to hit it. A Memory of Light progress bar moved to 61%.

BRANDON SANDERSON

Some are asking how I get guess the % finished of a book not done. I’ve been using 300k words as a guess. (As I did for Towers of Midnight .)

BRANDON SANDERSON

Since The Gathering Storm and Towers of Midnight were both around 300k, and they got me 2/3 through the outline, I think it’s a pretty good estimate.
