   It's all in the passion. If you write JUST for money, you aren't passionate about it. If you write because you enjoy writing, then even if you make over a million you still continue to do it cause you love it!

   I'm totally with Anaydema on this one.
   If you enjoy writing you don't need motivation. You write for the pure pleasure of writing.

   Developing my business so I get paid more for less writing, and eventually evolving it to where it perfectly facilitates the life that I want, with all the leisure time to spend with husband and kids I could possibly desire. When I'm making enough recurring revenue for all that, then I'll write just for fun...or drop writing and just raise fish.

   Anytime you work for money and only the money, you're sunk.  Your passion for your work has to drive you.  This is when you do your best.  This is what keeps you going.
   
   So what is your definition of "good money"?  No such thing.  Money is money.  If it's the money that motivates you to write, then the money you make will never be enough.
