That insight about lawyers may well be true, but then as I don't particularly respect lawyers' billing practices as a group, I would certainly not look to them for any model to emulate.

But then they're all wealthier than I am, so it's just as obvious that they don't look to my billing practices for any model to emulate, either! ;-)

I find it absolutely impossible to count hours spent composing,
especially since, as has been pointed out somewhere, so much of the
composing process looks like goofing off.


Funny remark, but true. There is a lot of thinking, tinkering, doing,
RE-doing, walking away from it, diverting to a computer game to clear the
head...oh wait, I'm giving away the magician's secrets.....


And how do you account for the progress you make as you sleep, when you wake
up in the middle of the night to see the perfect way through some difficulty
that had been resistant?  I realize that bill-by-the-hour professionals like
lawyers have midnight epiphanies, too.  I bet they don't infrequently tack
on another 15 minutes at least!
