Marc Mullo asked Cara Brookins:

Hi from Canada, what keeps you motivated and focussed on your writing?

Cara Brookins I want to be a full time writer, so I set enormous goals for myself and I'm merciless with my self-imposed deadlines. If I don't meet them I give up sleep, fun, everything & anything until I meet my goals. The best way to stay motivated for this level of dedication is to set a hard target of what you will consider 'success' and every single day spend a few minutes imagining what it will feel like when you achieve it. This way you will know what you're fighting for and feel it. Once you feel the success, nothing can make you stop until you have it! I hope this helps. Keep writing!
