Ann asked James V. Smith Jr.:

How do you stay motivated to write?

James V. Smith Jr. Ah, well, the question should be: How do I stay motivated to do my chores and interact with the other humanoids?

I always have more ideas to write than time to do them justice. Fact is, I've just begun to get acquainted with other members of the species, using voice-to-text to behave socially with other writers at the Iowa University online course in writing is taxing the clock. Marketing Prison of the Soul is an entirely new full-time project, though interesting is not nearly as absorbing as writing. St. Ant Knee is the start of a series, with #2 in progress, and #3 already imagined. Be warned. Writing, once it seduces you, is a mistress like Glenn Close in "Fatal Attraction."
