I found this cool website. It's an online magazine. I wrote to the writers, and they indicated that they created the site as a motivational tool to get them wrtiting. They allow submissions, and I thought the site was really clever. More than that, I thought it was an ingenious way to manufacture motivation. It can be tough finding the time to write especially when outside influences like family, commuting, work, etc. take up most of the hours I'm not sleeping. Haven't figured out a way to avoid sleep, especially since I'm not into drugs.
Here's the site
