Well I don't write that much pages... it depends on the story I'm making. Sometimes, I do researching and writing at the same time so that it will be accurate... and this logs me... i've been writing my novel for almost two years already and i'm happy that it is almost done...

A very nice discussion on creative potential! On this I must say that it depends on my writing interests on that particular time. I feel that such quantitive writing may not make quality composition. Rather write upto maximum three hours at a stretch and take an off. For a good writer, real and effective expression of thoughts on pages is more important than covering more number of pages! If you want to be a very good writer then please take care of it. Thanks.

I already take care of this, thanks. I just waned to know this 'cause I wanted do make an idea of how people work when they write. When I write a novel, I let always someone read what i've written, so that she can give me an opinion.

It all depends. Right now, I am writing on myLot and I am trying to catch up because I have a goal of one dollar a day. I do not have time to write any articles, and this limits the pages I write on my novel since until I get it published, I am not getting any money in. Today I was able to write one double spaced page plus a bit of the next one. Another day, I wrote two pages, but they were not that good, and I had to use much of the next day's time to revise them. I am a bit of perfectionist and I would rather two good pages than twenty scrappy ones.

Understood. I'm of the same opinion, too. It's not great writing 20 pages if they're bad written...

Thanks CarolaMuller. I'm new at this writing game and have never thought about just writing 20 pages in one day. But, I am going to make that a challenge for myself (a goal) and see what I come up with on a particular subject. I believe that I can do it.

It depends on what I'm writing. For exams, I could write about 10 pages an hour!! That's only when I'm under pressure. Usually, I get long term writer's block!

20 pages or 20 articles? Do you mean you made 20 posts? You don't seem like the type who would write long articles with rich content. I've probably written 10 articles in a day at least for the last 5 months. I should be getting some search engine rankings built up on my name. Why do you do it?
