Perhaps you have already seen this book. I don't know whether it
addresses exactly the question you have posed, but it seems like it

Letters_, Baker Books (US) and Apollos (England), 1998

I have read this book. As I recall it deals with Paul's intentional use
of patterns, such as chiasmus, to aid his hearers' understanding. I
think these patterns would indicate careful composition (at least at the
outline level) rather than spontaneous speech.
