0:48Now PlayingDavid Rubenstein: "And now when you write a book, do you write an hour a day, 2 hours a day, 3 hours a day and call it quits? Or you write a certain number of pages. How do you do that?
Stacy Schiff: "I write from the minute I hit my desk until the caffeine gives out, and that is approximately three-and-a-half hours. And I think anyone who says that they write for longer than that is either supernatural or lying."
