How to restructure creative groups when artificial deadlines kill inspiration

My creative writing group meets every month but we spend more time talking about why we haven't written than actually sharing work, and everyone feels guilty but nobody wants to admit that monthly deadlines might not be how creativity actually works for any of us. We're all committed to the group but the structure is working against what we're trying to create.
