My worst enemy is myself; my most hated aspect is the actual nitty-gritty writing itself. Perfectionist as I am, I will spend forever trying to hammer out something, and then I will become possessed by the spirit of an oracular Plotbunny and end up writing something else completely, in a feverish haste. Months later, I come back to the original draft, think Jeez Louise who wrote this, and get back to that one.

Rinse, lather, and repeat!

(My favourite part is actually sitting down with the final final version, and think, Jeez Louise, this is good, who wrote this?!)
