IDK, I absolutely cannot work on two things at once, really. Well, I could probably edit two things at once, but first draft? I'd get way too distracted. I have tried before and ended up putting aside one or the other before too long.
Now, I've learned if I'm working on something and another idea keeps hounding me, I keep a separate notebook and just let myself jot down notes for the other project. Whenever I'm ready to come back to it, the notes will help me get back to the mindset I was in at the time I wanted to write it.
