One book a year feels right, while three a decade...wouldn't work for me or my core readers.

He's right about not self-marketing his "backlist". I didn't even know he had books out.

At any rate, keep in mind that your posterity will be thin, almost surely. How much did Voltaire write? [1] How much do people read? [2]
