An apocryphal story about Joyce

A friend once found him sprawled across his desk, a figure of utter despair.

"How many words have you written today?" he asked him.

"Seven," the great man answered.

"But that’s good for you, isn’t it?"

"I suppose so," Joyce answered. "It’s just that I don’t know what order they go in."

Copied from here

I think 1,000 a day is pretty good, if you're consistent. A day with 5,000 is possible, but probably not sustainable for most people. 1,000 every day is better than 5,000 once every two weeks.
