For me it's actually a small goal. During National Novel Writing Month a few years ago I burned through a 60,000 word novella in 2 weeks (about 1 1/2 chapters a day).

I don't intend on sounding like I'm bragging so I apologize if it sounds that way. I write using a method called Dramatica Theory which sets up my story structure in such a way that once I have the book planned, the first draft is easy.

It's the 10+ rewrites that take forever ...
