In the editing , we were probably 75 percent done . We come back and finished it up . It took a couple months , and it was nice to be able to do back . Knate [ Lee ] , my co - author , and I , we had n’t seen it in a yr . We did a bunch of things here and there that we had n’t remember about or noticed a year before .
