How long did the first book take?

I pretty much said it all in the title. I've looked through the site a few times and I was unable to find mention of how long the first book took to write. Thanks and great job.

Took over a year. I was going through some military training and had some extra time so I thought I'd write a book and post it online. So I did. The rest is as they say, underground history.

J.L. Bourne,

I just got through DBDA in one sitting. Couldn't put it down. Excellent work and I look forward to reading your future projects. Good luck in the literary world.

What was the original publishing date for the first book? All I can find is the reprints from the last couple of years.

I don't remember the date. Sometime in 2004.
