    Some background music. You're going to need it: we're going to be here a while.

    Status Update, April 2024 Edition

    Part of my slowness in writing M.L.G.'s latest chapter is for the usual reasons: tiredness, minor depression, having other things on the mind, that sort of thing. However, in what can only be described as "whimsy", I've recently decided to complete a list of all of the intentional shout-outs and references in the story as of the most recent chapter.

    Something To Think About

    I have a message to share with prospective authors. If you go into writing a story---be it as a living, or just for fun---don't automatically assume that what you're doing is wholly original.

    Tired, Running On Empty

    That pretty much summarizes my mental state of the past few days. Constantly tired (half due to not getting enough sleep and half due to my walking regimen), and I can't really think of things I want to write for the story. You know you're having trouble finding things to talk about when your brain fishes for tuna, but ends up with guppies instead.

    So INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATED Right Now

    I copied the latest chapter of M.L.G. to my flash drive as usual. I took it home with the intent to post it today. I double-click the file.

M.L.G. Story Update, January 2024 Edition · 11:26pm January 27th

I went back through the first handful of chapters for M.L.G., from the opening up through "Alexandrite", and made some minor edits. Nothing that would impact the plot or anything like that.

Back when I started work on it, I had some struggles with writing from a first-person perspective. Time and time again, I'd slip up for reasons I've long forgotten and write certain actions as if they'd already happened, instead of being in the process of happening. I finally sat down these past few days and fixed what I could.

As to how the current chapter is faring, it's well underway with decent progress. I'm hoping that I can finish it by the end of next week, but I'm not going to hold my breath. Making sure the battle between Levi and Illudere ties up all loose ends concerning the latter is going to be a bit tricky.

On an unrelated note, I've said it before and I'll say it again: I hate Crohn's Disease. Health issues are making it fairly difficult for me to concentrate on stuff at the moment, and the medication I'm taking to keep the side effects in check isn't helping my mood.

Anyway, that's it for now. Ciao mein, everyone, and stay safe and sane.
