Of course we should not forget people such as David Widger, who has produced nearly 3,000 eBooks, about one per day, over a period of years, nor David Price who sent us one eBook per week for years, or several others who prefer to remain anonymous.
I'm sure it gets a lot easier after your hundredth book. For all those people doing thousands of books, a large group of books can be done in an evening. But the vast majority of people helping PG, those who sign up and proof a few hundred pages at DP and quit, or produce one or two books and wander off, don't have the skills and expertise to do a book in an evening. In any case, this applies to novels and simple non-fiction. You aren't doing many of the books I currently have up for proofing in one night.
