#writetip When writing your characters, give them weaknesses. Their weaknesses are what will make them interesting and relatable to your readers.

Writers, how long does it take you to write a book?

Some betas will complete the manuscript within a week or two, but quite often it can take longer, and if the beta ghosts then you might need to find others. (All of the estimates are for projects that are more than 80k words.)
Betas tend to take 1-3 months. Editing depends on the editor’s availability, but usually anywhere from 3-8 weeks per round. Cover design can take a couple weeks (again, depending on availability.) Formatting can also take a couple weeks.
