We hear from a writer today yearning to find a writing community, but not knowing how to do without spending money she doesn’t really have. Plus: A lot of questions we’re getting center on motivation in one way or another, so we’re going to discuss different kinds of motivations for different kinds of personalities. We’ve got writers Jessica Bird and Henriette Lazaridis to help us out.
