How do you balance writing new papers and revising drafts, especially when working on multiple projects with overlapping deadlines?
I often find myself torn between drafting new manuscripts and revising older ones under tight, conflicting deadlines. I’d love to hear how others handle this challenge.

I maintain a prioritized task schedule that separates deep-focus blocks for writing new content from revision sessions, align each paper with its deadline and stage such as drafting, revising, submitting, and allocate dedicated weekly slots to revisit older drafts while keeping momentum on new writing—ensuring consistent progress across all projects without burnout.

When working on multiple projects and juggling time and efforts requierd to meet deadlines, I have always set priorities based on critical needs of the clients and delgated certain tasks to my trustworthy staff who could deliver promised work in a timely manner.
