I hear you, this one that I'm in the editing process of now (which is hell) is my third attempt at writing a novel. What made this one get to some semblance of done is that I forced myself to write 1000 words a night. And the bulk of it was horrible rambling string of consciousness crap. But it force me to exercise the writing muscles. Then I later just filtered out the crap, and luckily found a couple of good lines here, a neat character there. And it sort of just worked out. It's making a habit out of it that really counts.
