Unlock the Secret Power of Stacking Projects: How to Multiply Your Productivity Overnight
But it also means you have to be able to handle several projects at once. I can’t say exactly how other writers manage stacking projects, but here’s one way to approach it.
At any given time, you are actively working on three projects:
- The Rewrite: This is a project for which you have already written a draft and turned in, and you will edit per studio / producer notes.
- The First Draft: This is a project you are working on to get to the studio.
- Story Prep: This is your next project on which you are doing research, brainstorming, developing characters, and plotting.
In a perfect world, you get to knock out a first draft while your rewrite is under review. Story Prep is something you do along with the other writing. Sometimes you spend 1–2 days per week just doing that. Or you devote your evenings for research.
