I wanted to share this piece here. It feels relevant to some good discussions recently with @danicaswanson @les @markmcclure.eth and others about writing pace—the virtues and benefits of going fast or slow. https://open.substack.com/pub/countercraft/p/on-productivity

I think this is broadly right. Writers have different temperaments. The work is to figure out your particular: - Voice - Genre - Scale - Pace The first two are widely discussed. The last two less so.

I'm in the "need to spend a long time to produce great work" camp, which doesn't get as much fanfare as the productivity gurus. But it's more than that: it's also that I just enjoy it more when I proceed slowly and think things through at leisure. Even for casts! https://warpcast.com/danicaswanson/0xf048e14c

Any creative process is affected by external stimuli. The relationship between the stimulus and the writer impacts speed, flow, productivity, and of course, output.

Great piece. Wrote on the same idea 2 weeks ago. My take: only 20% of work is actual output. It should be measured a bit differently. https://sceneswithsimon.com/p/on-being-prolific

Well said. Most of the artworks I intentionally ‘rushed’ to complete did not age well whilst every work I created with patience feels timeless
