Is it Possible to Write 300 eBooks in One Year?
The other day someone confronted me and asked me how it was possible to write 300 books in a year, he was referring to my eBook project and my prolific online article writing. Not so sure where he got the 300 books in one year from, but I do play to write approximately 90 eBooks in the next 18-months. Last year I wrote 10-books and got good enough that I believe it is possible to attain that goal.
Indeed, I told the gentleman, that I have no idea how to write 300 books in one year because I only did ten last year, but I offered some other thoughts on the matter. You see it is possible to do one book every three days, so you could, as a human do 120 if you focused and skipped everything else. Provided you had some help in editing and such.
Now there is a guy who created a computer program and he has been able to do 200,000 in about one-year, see foot note*. In my estimation these 200,000 eBooks are not so good, well not like my books for instance, but in time Artificial Intelligence will be able to put out unlimited amounts of information, translate it, or verbalize it in its own words faster than any human or all humans put together could. That day is coming of course; 5-10 years would not surprise me much.
Currently, I writing 16,500 words per day with voice assist, not every day, but when I focus. Actually, I am averaging more like 6,500 - 8,000. I would say that it is not quite possible for a person to write 300 books per year, but a little less than half that is possible. And if you had a staff of; title page, table of contents, index, figures, pictures and formatting makers, along with a really hard core and hard working copywriter, then you could easily do 150 books a year. No sweat.
In fact, I know so people that have a small publishing company and help people put out 200-page books in 3-days. So, it's doable and thus, I think that answers the question.
