R. L. Stein supposedly wrote a new (admittedly short) novel every two weeks.

This Spanish romance novelist apparently wrote over 4000 novels in her lifetime.

Successful writers generally don’t just make stuff up. They do plenty of research.

You can’t just compare creative writing to writing a paper.
