While my previous book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08THVG8YY/">&ldquo;I.C.Q.,&rdquo;</a> took me around thirty contiguous days to complete the first draft, <em>The Big Score</em> started our back in November 1st as part of <a href="https://nanowrimo.org/about-nano">National Novel Writing Month 2020</a>, and was only completed seven months later.</p>
