I have had the same experiences in some of my projects. I tried lots of different ways to make the division of work more fun and productive. For example, last time we did the work in chunks, like a chapter every two week based on an agreed outline and deadline.
We bounced chapters back and forth taking turns rewriting, but it was agreed ahead of time who would do the final rewrite of each chapter to avoid unity of voice and style issues. We also divided the character building responsibility and had fun with it as we found ways to interact our character in the story.
It helped to have as much research work done before the first draft started (character profiles, storyboards, plot points and scene descriptions,...).
What have you guys tried?
