Procrastination seems to be one of the #1 problems for many writers in the group. Perhaps you could each help each other get motivated? Or maybe (if everyone would like) we could do a bi-weekly writing contest? We could choose a different theme (ie poetry one week, fictional short story another, etc.)? We could post the entries and hold votes to declare the winners and maybe get some helpful feedback as well?

I can totally relate to the procrastination issue. In fact, I'm procrastinating now!
