Jack Kerouac's batting averages
In 1948 Jack Kerouac came up with a formula, now lost to history, that he called a "batting average" to calculate his productivity while working on his first novel. I wish I knew the formula, because I'd love to track my efforts. Perhaps I should just come up with my own equation. )The link also mentions the 'On the Road' scroll, which I saw about three months ago down in Denver.)
