After reading How Do You Write So Fast? by
synecdochic, I've been practicing turning off my inner editor and just writing to word goals. This way I can write 200 words a half hour, and they are not the most horrible words ever. Gaze upon all I have accomplished, Internet!
Assignment the First: Rough draft, baby! (1050 words). Needs lots of fixing, but...draft!
Assignment the Second: 375 words
Treat the Only (so far): Rough draft!
Assignment the Second has more scenes than the others and is structured in a funny way--which means I don't know what comes next. (Although the funny structure could help move it along, at least for a draft).
I also use Ommwriter, a full-screen text editor that makes clicky noises when I type. (I'm a very auditory person; the clicky noises are an impetus to type more words).
