Depends on how serious you are about learning to write well. The Lord of the Rings is 473k words. [1] If you type it out at 50 wpm, that's 157 hours, or about four work-weeks of typing. That's a lot if you're just fucking around. But if your goal is to write your own successful epic, burning a month or three on really thinking closely about each word is a reasonable investment against the 5 or so years you'd spend writing that epic.
