It's true in original fiction, too. If you can write good enough, and fast enough, you'll get more of an audience and make more money by pleasing them with steady releases than you will if you're a slow and (subjectively) amazing writer.

The truth is, though, you can become faster. It takes practice, like running or any other kind of exercise. If it matters to you, work on increasing your speed. There are a lot of books out there on the subject.

very true.

it also lets you be more topical, s. writers like Terry Pratchett and Stephen King. you can be interested in one topic for five month, but if you want to really polish the writing, most people get bored with a topic that isn't like, their big ID interest.

it's pretty obvious in some of their books that they're practically thinking out loud through their writing instead of plotting it first. at the same time it's easy to read these books, because you get used to their writing and tropes. and they really do get better while they practice.

I want to thank you for this comment. I'm a very, very slow writer, and the simple notion that it's possible to practice at being fast gives me motivation to try.

I dunno - I'm a slow writer, too, and I've been doing it for a lot of years, and I don't think my speed changed much.

If it's important to you to increase your speed there are methods you can learn. It doesn't have to be something you strive for, though.
