I really know how you feel. It's absolutely the same with me. Most of the time I don't even have the attention span to sit all the way through a movie.
Well, and I don't have all that much writing to do. I mostly have projects and practical assignments, but I guess it's mostly the same.
What helps me is getting away from any and all distraction and getting out of my comfort zone, aka not doing the work at home. Instead I go to the library or a study room at University or even visiting my mother helps. Then I can concentrate on the task at hand. And once I really concentrate on it I have no problem working on the same thing for hours and hours.
But it's really different with everyone. Mabe doing the work in chunks, with little rewards, that has worked for me before. Like, when I have worked for two hours on this, I will reward myself with watching an episode of this or that show, or surfing the net for an hour or whatever.
Anyway, I wish you good luck with that and I'm sure you can do it! :]
