try getting digital voice recorder. Seriously.
Someone got me one and I wrote a novel in six weeks. I am now on my 3rd book, in less than a year. Make sure (very sure) it has a usb plug-in. You can transfer your files to your computer and use a program called escribe to transcribe it. By the time you type it, it's already second draft. The DVR fits in your pocket. I carry mine everywhere.
You can wake up, hack out a verbal dream sequence without turning the light on or sitting up. You can write while you walk. I've written poems in the bathroom at parties.
You may be the kind of person who works better from outline. Try an outline. Picture the various scenes (know what a scene is) and list them.
Then pick one and write it.
Next day (or hour or week) write another.
Just have your characters do one thing after another, and have one thing after another happen to them. Problems, btw, that they cannot solve. Make their lives difficult.
