17: Do you think about your WIP every waking moment?

No.

Not anymore, and I miss those times somewhat. I also wrote every moment I could grab.

Back then, a huge motivation was through weekly emails with a friend who kept asking me questions about my WiP.

I no longer have that. The different prompts here do help, however.

Perhaps it might be useful if you get (as I have got) a couple of alpha readers - chapter-by-chapter reading and feedback which motivates me to keep going.

Just thinking aloud (It works for me is all)

Alpha readers sound great - but I don't always write a story in a linear way, so I skip ahead to exciting chapters and such... very much a pantser.

Even so... yes, that would be awesome.

I recently recruited a third alpha reader who is more selective with her reading, and even she's enjoying my latest WIP.

Which boosts my energy, sharpens my focus, etc.
