This month I’ve been doing Inkhaven — a writing workshop in Berkley, California where you must publish a 500+ word blog post every day or they kick you out

So the name of the game is quantity over quality?

Quantity has a quality of its own. I am proud of 80%+ of the posts I produced — and I wouldn't produce them otherwise.

I'm not familiar with that particular workshop, but it's a writing workshop, and it's 500 words. Now, if they'd said 1,000, you'd have a point, but it's only 500. This comment has 39 and it took me only minutes.

I find the idea of having to pump out posts every day more questionable, rather than the length. In my experience, this is the model of content farms, not people who write things when they know they have something excellent to share.
