writing ctd.

yesterday and today went quite well regarding my writing. i'm concentrating on blogs in general and wrote up some stuff on the commenting feature. i noticed that i really like footnotes. they offer a place for meanderings - thoughts i previously left out due to fear of distracting the reader. the pdf of my text currently comprises 18 pages - including title page, toc, works cited and one page only containing headlines for the chapter on elections. i'll keep reporting the number of pages to somewhat document my progress.
