I ghost write some novels and aim for a month. Six weeks is more realistic. And, with me it's a cheating six weeks because I do a week of research first. I find no problem in hitting 5000 words for the first two weeks but it means 12 hour days and my wife asks me to come down to 3000 because I become bad tempered. There's something to be said for it, though because momentum in writing is really important. Good luck - be following your blog with interest. For the record, though, my old synthetic duvet had the sort of atmosphere that would register 'hostile to life' on the tricorder. A good discipline Steve.
