I’m currently writing the final entry of the first journal in My Darling Tragedy. I’ve already been at it for two weeks and will likely need one more week. I had taken some time off work to fly up to San Francisco to get a feel for Crissy Field as I need to write about it, and it’s been years since I’ve been there. On Friday, I was waiting in the airport terminal watching my flight be delayed four times before finally being canceled. So now I’m trying to just wing it with the help of Google and Google Earth. It’ll probably be less detailed than I had planned, but so far, I don’t think the entry is suffering too much as the mood is being set more by conflict than setting.
I’m considering this the final entry as this is where I would end if I were to publish My Darling Tragedy as a book. But the online journal will continue on Patreon as well as the free platforms Royal Road and Substack. However, when I finish this entry, I may take four to six weeks off to do a writing sprint of a new novel, just to see how much of a first draft I can get down in that time. I have nine weeks of journal entries already written, so an attempt at a new novel shouldn’t impact the publishing schedule of MDT.
Other than that, I haven’t been doing much other than reading, overeating, watching Terrace House again, and listening to ILLIT and BABYMONSTER.
