Wow, 60 minutes only? for 1k words? The 3 hours I mentioned, is from zero to publication, which usually includes an image I create, the formatting, the publication itself. Not sure what time I usually take for 'just' the writing. Maybe 60min instead of your 30min? Maybe a little less, or even more? Need to time it next time 🙃
I have the experience with long-form comments, I write quicker; I suppose writing a comment is easier to write an interesting post.
Jeff and Julia: Both interesting concepts! A few years ago when I was writing more frequent, I believe I was more creative. Yesterday I was saying this to a friend when reading some of my old posts of 4+ years ago. So, they may be right in what the claim 😉
