You could say something like this: "I'm generally not able to disclose details about other projects. But I can tell you that their effect on my availability will be..."
- stinos 13y agodon't do that, just be straightforward instead. At least they know what they are dealing with, liking it or not is simething else. Sure, it's not a blatant lie, but imo it comes close enough. Suppose you do say this, and later a client finds out you actually hardly have any or no other projects ('work' projects, that is), I'm pretty sure they would think you haven't been completely honest. And such thoughts harm trust.

If you have even one other project, it's not the slightest bit misleading. All I recommended saying is that you don't disclose details about your other work. That statement implies nothing about the volume of the other work, except that it's non-zero.
