Just a quick note. I took a typing test last night, and it turns out that I can type 70 words a minute. This is when I’m just tearing along, no thought, just typing relatively simple words from the screen.
That makes my theoretical words per hour a MAXIMUM of 4200. Divide by about half, since I write fantasy and sci-fi and therefore have to type names like Norstrilia and Tk’tk’tk and my theoretical maximum is 2100 words. Right now, I’m at about 800 words an hour of first draft. Obviously, there’s room for growth.
So what’s your theoretical maximum vs actual output?
