In order to create, you gotta produce!
Stumbled upon, at blog.pmarca.com: Age and the entrepreneur, part 1: Some data. Research by Dr. Dean Simonton of U.C. Davis:
[C]reativity is a probabilistic consequence of productivity, a relationship that holds both within and across careers.
Within single careers, the count of major works per age period will be a positive function of total works generated each period, yielding a quality ratio that exhibits no systematic developmental trends.
And across careers, those individual creators who are the most productive will also tend, on the average, to be the most creative: Individual variation in quantity is positively associated with variation in quality.
Time to get to work.
