Interesting point, Maxi. But how can you tell how long an author spent writing something? The speed of release isn’t always indicative of how long someone spent planning, writing, and editing it. Some authors finish multiple books in a series before rapidly releasing them, rather than writing and publishing one after the other quickly.

I read and write (more reading than writing, ha) in the fantasy and sci-fi genres, and I can certainly tell the difference between quick releases and those that cooked longer. Maybe it depends on the genre. But in those two, I typically notice a lack of depth in world building and plotting – I find quick releases to not have as much meat on the bone, if you will. For me, it’s like the difference between shows on CW and HBO. Might be good for author success; not sure it’s really delivering the same quality to readers though.
