Irony of productivity writing

Time is limited. There are some excellent discussions about productivity that are going on. I'd love to participate, but I cannot as I'm writing my next book on productivity. Does that count as irony?

Recently David Lee had an article that made major headlines about how GTD is not suited to creative work. As I *ahem* wrote a book on it I think it's safe to say I'm on Sparks' side on this one. The Flaubert quote, too, is one of which I'm quite fond.
