Well. Given that I only decided to do a post-a-day for the whole month on the second of July and therefore missed a day from the get-go, I think it's rather good that I only missed three days altogether. Clearly do-able. So now I am going to mix two dead metaphors: I'm going to take a leaf out of someone else's book and up the ante.
Because I recently saw someone else in the blogosphere, and I now can't track down who it was, committing herself (I think) to writing 300 words a day, ie no cheating with LOLcats and such. So, since I finally started my novel a couple of weeks ago but, as so often, got stuck almost straight away, I'm going to try for a minimum of 300 words on the blog and another 300 on the novel, every day for the month of August, and see how I go.
But not now, because there's an all-day meeting. Later.

Ahh, good. I thought there ought to be a PC novel turning up - to write as you do and not publish would be a crime.
Can't wait!
Thanks, it'll make it so much easier for me to procrastinate on writing my essay if I've got your blog to read.
Could you publish your novel before I get any silly ideas about enrolling in a PhD? Perhaps you could add a tagline to your banner "Pavlov's Cat: Writing so you don't have to".
ahem . . .
300 words a day. God the guilt. I decided to move house instead. Its quite a difficult target, not short, not long, just awkward. Good luck.
I was actually inspired by you and your posting every day. So we have made a neat loop.
Oooh, goody. I can't wait.
