My Dad is Dead and I am Not Okay (but I think I will be eventually) · 3:41pm Aug 22nd, 2023
a central driving plot point is scootaloo’s inability to process the grief of the death of a parent.
and I awoke this morning to my mom calling me and telling me that my father died last night.
the last few chapters were going to really get deep into this theme, and go into her backstory to explain her motivations in more depth and detail. that was the plan. and now that plan is ruined.
this story was very important to me. it still is. and I will finish it. in fact, I think that I’m going to use this fic to help me better process my own feelings of grief and bereavement. it’s probably going to get intense and personal, significantly more so than it already is. however, I’m in no state to write right now. my car accident meant I had to postpone my visit with my father, but now it’s cancelled. forever.
I feel bad for adding further delays to this already years long endeavor. but I think this is a perfectly reasonable reason.
Take all the time you need. My condolences.
Take care of yourself, mate.
