But plenty of writers have other jobs and responsibilities and simply don't have that huge chunk of writing time. I think 40 hours a week might be a bit too much time to write. When time is no longer precious, a lot of procrastination can take place. Anyway you are doing a great job by taking as much time as you can, using it to the fullest, and plugging away. It's that long term perseverance, not the number of hours per day, that will determine your success. I’m sure a few prolific and successful writers can write for 8 hours every day.
