I did expert witness work in automotive product litigation for 17 years, and
you haven't lived till you're in trial, on the stand & the other side is
tearing your report apart word by word. I quickly learned how to adapt to
that & would pore over my reports for days, word wrenching the hell out of
them. Likewise, after a while, it was very easy for me to help my lawyers to
pick apart an opponent's report.

Subject: Re: Writing is hard
I try to average about 1000 words per day. I write in a wide variety of
journalism and marketing genres, and some of my work is highly technical.
However it isn't the kind of service manual or textbook writing commonly
characterized as technical writing. My max is about 2200 words per day,
but I rarely work that hard.

That seems to be right on the money.
