How To Stay Motivated ***ALL NEW CONTENT*** A previously recorded LIVE WEBINAR

EPISODE 71) Emily Brooks and Jon Meyers hosted a LIVE WEBINAR on February 20, 2025 on HOW TO STAY MOTIVATED. We broke the teaching into two sections: How To Stay Thirsty and How To Quench That Thirst. If you think about the putting a bit of salt on your tongue, that's the metaphor for which we were going. We give multiple tips on how to keep writing when you don't really feel like it -- and some additional advice with practical applications to help you keep going.

We are joined on screen by writer David Corbly, author Betsey Kulakowski, writer Emily "Mily" Rhinelander, and audiobook narrator Emily Norman.

You can never have too many Emilys!

Somewhere off-screen when it was live streaming, we had contributions from Sheila Gunlock, Bob Saenz, Lori Twichell, and a couple dozen other lurkers.

EVERYONE GETS OUT OF THEIR BUBBLE

YOU RESPOND!

Jeanice gives us an alternative ending to the group story from the previous webinar.

#HEYJONMEYERS turns into #HEYEVERYBODY

And we all learn why you need to prune your fruit trees.

CALL TO ACTION

Jon Meyers forgot to give a CALL TO ACTION, so... your call to action this week is to do whatever you want. Make it writing related.

Then tell us what you did.

Let us know who that author is by responding in our show notes at writebettertogether.com/podcast, or in the comments on YouTube, or on Facebook, X, or Instagram.

THE FINAL ACT: TOP THIS! Concentric Circle Storytelling. Betsey starts us off with pointing out that a prune was once a plum -- making this our first episode ever to use the word prune in two completely different contexts.
