Have you ever attempted NaNoWriMo? (National Novel Writing Month - 50,000 words of a novel, minimal editing, just lay the whole thing down over November and worry about the rest later.)
What about the other projects throughout the year?
I 'won' NaNo in 2007, managed 20k in 2006 and two days and then a Macbook killing soup accident in 2008. Since then, I've been all shades of busy pretending to be other people and not got round to it again.
It's terrific for getting raw words down you can worry about later - nothing's worse than the editing trap for killing fiction in early stages, I think.
