WrimoRadio 1: Inspiration

WrimoRadio debuts with a bear-hug of inspiration. Participants share what got them fired up to write this year, and we hear from novelist Deanna Rayburn about first drafts, get some reassuring advice from NaNo veterans in London and Kansas, and learn about an inspiration store in your neighborhood that's open 24 hours a day.
