The Mozart example doesn't really work that well. Mozart wrote his first symphony in a month at the age of eight and his last three (39,40, 41) in the space of a few weeks. Despite being "rushed", they've been "fairly enduring". On the other hand there are plenty symphonies which have taken years or decades to write and which do not even begin to approach the quality of K.16.

The same is true for writing books - decades spent writing is no guarantee of quality.
