One of 2 things for where I would start at.

1. Go under your clutch pedal and disconnect your clutch start switch. I had a similar issue and with the clutch switch disconnected, the car started right up. Also, if you haven't already done this it helps lengthen the life of your (correct me if I'm wrong) throw out bearing...I think.

2. Get a friend over, while he tries to start the car tap on the starter with a hammer. If it turns over, get a new starter :).

If you've done both of these check your battery terminals for corrosion and beyond that, I wish you the best of luck.
