People often ask how long I spend on essays. On average about 2 days per printed page. But it varies a lot. "The Refragmentation" (http://paulgraham.com/re.html ) took 3 months, because it required a lot of research, and "Writing, Briefly" (http://paulgraham.com/writing44.html ) took 67 minutes.

How do you usually start? Do you start by laying out the structure?

No, I just start writing. Sometimes I have a list of things I want to mention at some point, but not in any particular order.
