The average reading speed in adults is apparently 300 wpm, and the average TYPING speed of a professional typist starts at 50 wpm.
That means that writing an average 3k piece in a way so fast that you make no pauses and it's as if you were just typing in a way that is sufficient to make a living off of it, takes ten times longer than to read it. It's always there.
(Personally I read about 150 wpm and take over an hour to write my tiny 600 word things but case stands)
