For each book, it is different. But that period of thinking, of reflection, is crucial to how successful your story will turn out to be.

Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick.
