Since my last update, I have got a laptop. This has been a huge blessing as it means I can write a lot more often! It is great to be able to write most days, but, obviously, it is difficult to commit to this, especially if you are new to writing.
When you first get an idea, quite often you are really excited about it and write a lot, but gradually it all peters out. Don't be discouraged if this happens to you. Just spend a little time not writing, and thinking about where your story could go. Go over it in your head until you know exactly what to put down on the paper when you come back to the writing.
If you are really on a roll, don't just keep going until you are totally worn out. Stop while you know what's happening next and come back to it the next day. That way, you always want to go back to it, and you are never tempted to just leave your work untouched.
I hope you found this advice helpful, and you find committing to your writing that little bit easier.
