Last night I managed about 2000 words. I'd like to get back to that as an overall average but some days it's going to be tough. I'm at 21K plus words as of the last count. I just read a pep talk blog post about how after 25K it gets easier and after 30K even easier still. The encouragement is to target at 250 words when you sit down. Then 500, then 1000 and so on. What's helping me most is breaking it into distinct scenes. I'm sure you'd do fine if you set your mind to it. It’s coming easier as I go. Last night I managed about 2000 words.
