So here's my first progress report for those interested (but mainly to keep me honest in my daily writing intentions).
So far I've managed to find somewhere between 20 & 40 minutes every day to do a bit of fiction. I've got a short story project up to about 960 words, which I need to get up to at least 1500 to qualify for the contest I am writing it for. I think another rewrite, a bit more showing not telling, should get me somewhere near the mark without padding.
Didn't get any long stints over the weekend, but spent some time pulling a few ideas together and scribbling notes for Project Seven. I've decided it would be nice to get a first draft of P7 finished in the next 12 months, and maybe participate in NaNo next time round.
Unlikely, but nice.
Total wordage for the month runs to about 2000 so far on the two projects. Which isn't a bad start really.

Hey, that's 8 pages!
Mir--lagging badly
Well, I'm not attempting to Nano this year (sheesh, now it's a verb...) but either way, you're ahead of me on word count. GoGoGo!
