"A book a week" is more or less my annual goal (that I meet sometimes and don't meet sometimes). The issue isn't that. That's a good goal. The issue is regimenting it and saying "we start the new book on Sunday and finish by the following Saturday" (which is more or less what Lex says). That part is weird and ruins the whole thing, because you can no longer take advantage of averages and assume things will mostly work out. It seems that he's relaxed that in the blog post now, but that's what he started out saying (https://archive.is/MxKIt), and it was stupid.
