Words per Biscuit

This afternoon I have eaten 7 biscuits and written only 135 words. That gives me a WpB (Words per Biscuit) rate of 19.29, which I have to admit is pretty terrible. It means that in order to complete my book I'm going to have to eat about 3,11O biscuits in the next 4O days. That's 77.75 biscuits per day.
What can we learn from this? Perhaps that shortbread contains less literary merit than we thought.

First of all, when you say biscuit I think Poppin Fresh and a buttermilk biscuit. Do you say roll?

So since we are talking cookies, the question might be how big are they? That needs to be worked into the equasion.

Yes - I do of course mean cookies. I should have said that in the first place. And in answer to the first comment - of course you can link to my site! I might even link back to yours.

So, that's my problem. Lack of cookies! And all this time I thought it was that I was an idiot. Thanks for enlightening me.
