Well, I ran on a 6 month publishing timeframe, but that's only because I had the books done ahead of time. Anything faster and I wouldn't have meet my deadlines because I couldn't have gotten the books out in time at the level of quality I require. I do however have another one that's coming out in the near future that'll have all 4 books in the series completed ahead of time (I'm done with 1-3, so I just need to complete 4 and I'm done) so I can easily go with a shorter publishing timeframe, assuming the publisher will agree to it.
Oddly though, I don't think the publisher will agree. The reason for me thinking this is due to my experience so far with publishing. Despite how fast your publisher can put out your book, you still have to deal with the book distribution bureaucracy, and that's unbelievably slow. At this point a 6 month publishing cycle is pretty much as fast as you can push it, and even that's somewhat on the "too fast" side of things. I say this because I've already got books 4 and 5 of my Earthfleet saga completed and "published", yet book 3 hasn't even made it into circulation yet. So don't be trying to publish too fast, as your book needs time to work its way through the system and into the wild.
