Regarding Writing

At the very start of this post I'd mentioned that one of my goals was to work more faithfully on my novel. The training for the marathon and related fundraising pushed that to the back burner. However I would like to now note that I have been working faithfully on my novel for at least 20 minutes (usually over an hour) almost every weekday for about a month now. I have also joined a writer's exercise message board which is helping me to fine tune my craft and inspiring me to keep writing. At present I have approx 30,000 words written.
