Writer's to-do list

First of all, why does it always seem to get longer? My to-do lists tend to do just that. Or I'll start one, work my way halfway through it, and then already start a new list. Feel familiar to anyone? Currently, there's a lot of promotion and marketing on my to-do list, but I'd rather focus on my writing list. Here we have:

Writer's to-do list

• Rewrite and edit the first draft of my second novel

• Translate my first novel into German

• Continue writing on my third novel (overcome writer's block)

• Brainstorm more ideas for the fourth and fifth novels

• Revise an older novel for publication
