Does it really take you only three or four months to: Write up a final draft of your best prose across 50k words
No. I can, and frequently do write 50k words in 3 days. On a normal, average writing day I usually write 17k words a day. It is unusual for me to hit anything fewer than 50k words in 3 days… I average 200k words per month published… soooo… no… your numbers are way off. 3 to 4 months is going to be 600k to 800k words for me.
Most of my books were written with a brother daisywheel. I just search unsplash for one and, yes, there it is! The typewriter in the picture below is a Brother Daisywheel. I used it from 1993 until it was destroyed by a gay hating backhoe on August 8, 2013. (Info about that here.)
