I don't question the rate of output as much as I question the quality. Even Dumas and Asimov had to be generating a lot of clinkers amid the gems.
Indeed; producing 12 novels a year is entirely possible, if you just dictate a book, don't do anything else, and just start the next one. Then you could write books as fast as you can speak.

But the quality... will probably be non-existent.
