It varies for myself too from several pages for one complex important dream, to a few lines for more nonsensical crap. Every time I close my eyes I endeavor to write/recall something.
Inconsistency does hinder, but inconsistence of will/intent to recall as opposed to how much is recalled after any dream (easily happens if you are too tired or drugged or distracted). Do you journal every time and set an intent to recall? this matters most. Setting the intent to remember consciously each time will not only keep results consistent but will also expose you to the gate of lucidity/control. Journaling follows the same active mechanism as reality checks for testing lucidity; if it becomes some automatic habit you do out of obligation with no active will your brain will just run on it's usual amnesiac autopilot routine, not different than sleeping through a familiar stimuli the brain learned to ignore because you stopped actively paying attention. "I will remember" needs to be firmly in the mind each time your eyes close.
