I wonder what kind of book I’d end up writing if I wrote just 1 sentence a day, but with no deletions or backtracking allowed. At 10 words a day, it would take about 20 years to turn into a 73k word book (about an average trade book)

serious question though — how much deleting and backtracking goes into a normal novel? 5% 40%?
