6,086 words. Had to struggle to reach this. Started at 8.30pm and finished about 11.10pm. Man this is hard work and I'm only 3 days in. 27 more days to go! The good news is I'm still working at 2,000 words per day, but I suspect I'm going to have to put in a couple of good weekends of writing - so I can have a break on some days. Erik Benson is at 4,848 words after 2 days - wow!
Sorry my weblog writing is taking a back-seat this month (not to menion my reading!). My novel has some interesting themes though, especially of communication. Even if the end result is a dodgy novel, the process I'm going through will be worth it (one hopes).
No the All Blacks didn't exactly hammer Wales, but hopefully the process of having a tough game will be worth it for them too ;-)

No, Richard, I wasn't wondering if you *can* do it, I was just wondering if you would have tried it, it's different. I fall in the "someday I'll write a novel" category too and maybe, if you succeed, I'll get motivated to start too. I wish you luck.
