As a writer, I have a sneaking suspicion that Ted Chiang writes a lot more than he publishes. You just don't get as good as he is without lots and lots of practice. I have a feeling there are a lot of projects he scraps that we never get to see, and many of them are probably pretty great.
Personally, I find him and his quality-over-quantity approach inspiring.
