If what you are writing seems like a chore then maybe it isn't the right idea. Try to play around with outrageous ideas that will make writing fun and they don't necessarily have to be in your final story but it'll make whatever you're writing seem "fun". Also, all writers go through the gray period. The dread middle is always hard to write. You just have to grin and bare it and make it through so you can get to the fun parts. Do little bits at a time so you don't feel overwhelmed. Eliminate distractions and just get at it!
