I fantasize about writing a great book someday

Ooh me too! A race to see who can do it first.
Anyway I agree with Splat about trying something else if it isn't working. Loads of people I've talked to say you should write at least once a day but I disagree; if you force yourself into writing it'll most likely go wrong. Take your time. Thenagain, try to write at least a bit a week, just so you don't forget. If you reach writers block I find it ususaly helps to re-read what you've already done.
If you lose interest ask yourself 'is it really worth it?', 'what will happen if I finish it?' etc. And don't be scared to start again if it isn't working. Try re-aranging the settings, altering the story line slightly, giving the characters different personaleties and stuff like that. Eventualy you'll find something you like.
