Pilar updates listeners on her writing retreat and how it's difficult to explain to people who don't write that writing is not driven by inspiration.

She shares her struggle with technique and the bad writing habits she's discovered.

This episode's wisdom is on using dialogue as exposition, borrowed from Into the Woods by John Yorke.
