With my chronic laziness, I'm not sure that I'm the best person to answer this question, but I've found that getting organized really helps when I want to do work. I set myself a goal, like "I want to write a fic about [insert series you're currently fired up about]" or "I want to write a fic to practice writing action scenes". Then I start sketching out an outline and write myself a little plan so that I'm not just making it up as I go along. That way, I get to ration the excitement that comes with starting up a new project, and hopefully it goes on for longer.

Welcome back to the board. I've just come back from a stint of inactivity myself.
