    Ahh, yes I’ve been to uni too. It’s not gotten me much faster at writing large amounts of text. But I do have to agree it’s become very easy.

    Isn’t this more of a lack of energy rather than time? Or perhaps just lazyness?

      I suppose that depends on one’s writing process.

      For my part, I usually end up deleting needless words or clichés on a second pass.

          I guess you get some thoughtfulness and economy of words kind of for free them. Reminds me of how (I think it was him) Edgar Allan Poe would write with slow-to-dry ink, so he would have to take his time when writing.
