I think there is not a single simple trick. I guess you are entering leadsheets with chords and lyrics? How fast can you read notes and how fast can type on the keyboard? I can tell only my MO. I created a template and enter the notes for the first voice, second voice, chords,... as variables. To control line- and pagebreaks I often use a hidden voice. Lyrics mostly I search at the net and do copy&paste. >From my experience I can say it is a matter of practice. For my first Lilypond sheets it felt if I needed ages. Not this works really fast, but I have to admit that I can read notes very well and type rather quick on the keyboard.
