It's meaningless in terms of good versus bad to consider how prolific or non prolific someone is as a writer or creator. I have known oodles of people who fit both and are excellent and I know people who crank out tons of crap and some who have written 1 or 2 really awful songs and never move past them, but rather they keep looking for new opportunities for the same 1 or 2 terrible songs.

I think you should do what makes you happy first and foremost. That way at least 1 person is happy with your work (some never even have that). If you only have enough to say to fill 1 song, then so be it. If you can crank out 250-500 songs a year, good for you. (I kept that pace for years). I know a lot of folks who are top notch that do 12-20 songs a year and choose the best 10-12 for their album. Others have 100 or more songs to choose from. Who cares? Just do the best you can and try to learn ways to improve your skills each time out. And most importantly, have some fun doing it. If making music isn't the most fun thing you do, then I strongly suggest NOT doing it anymore and instead doing more of the funnest thing in your life. Why do anything else with your free time?
