One of my favorite authors (Lois Bujold) turns out maybe a book every two years (she's had health problems, which may have affected this thoug). I'd hate to have her feel rushed to get out more books faster, because her writing is so rich it's worth the wait.
Another favorite author is Nora Roberts, who turns out 4-6 books a year. She's incredibly dedicated, but also very prolific. some of her books (like the Inn Boonsboro books) read like she's calling them in, but other books (The Witness) are rich in plot and characterization.
All of which goes to say that different authors write differently, and nobody should be rushed if they happen to be a slow writer.
