\begin{quote}
My salad days,
When I was green in judgment: cold in blood,
To say as I said then! But, come, away;
Get me ink and paper:
He shall have every day a several greeting,
Or Ill unpeople Egypt.

\noindent{}First paragraph. \noindent{}The past year has been a difficult one for me.
\paragraph{Good writing takes time}I actually knew this, but I was curious as to how much time it actually takes to write an issue of this zine. So for issue \#6 I grabbed a timer and kept track. (If you look at the git repo, there is a \texttt{.csv} file in there where I kept track of this.) I had a total of 3,429 minutes, which works out to 57.2 hours. Of course, when I was finished, I had more material than I could fit, so I moved an entire chapter (on flash cards in \LaTeX{}) to this chapter. That chapter required 871 minutes (14.5 hours) to research, write, and edit, which means that the total time spent on what would eventually become the finished product was 2,558 minutes or 42.6 hours. That's over a week's worth of work.
I'm okay with that number. After all, I have to justify the price as well. I wish I could spend all those forty hours in a single week though, because I could just take a week off work and write all day. But writing doesn't work like that—things need time to fully form in my mind.
