Rod McFadden
Getting themes and deadlines has always been good for me -- forces me to write, because I have a tendency to find other things to do when the page is blank. I agree with others that the opportunity to read others' work was also motivating.
I felt like I ran out of gas in the last week, or maybe just didn't find anything in the sub-theme. But the group as a whole fills in the gaps when any one writer hits a block, and that provided both ongoing motivation and also took individual pressure off.
