Introduction

There's more to #GHAWG than just daily zapfic entries and the spreadsheet I use to track them. There's research. There's review. There's also thought and inspiration. Then there are the tools involved in doing any of those tasks.

Just to keep things from getting scrambled in my head, and also to document for myself what I've been considering, I began keeping a diary of my activities as they concern #GHAWG. With posts in the GHAWG, Uninterrupted series on hold at Interlude 3 while Act 7 remains in progress, I decided to share these diary entries with everyone on Hive blockchain.

On Mondays which don't feature a GHAWG, Uninterrupted post-- GHAWG-U-- I'll post diary entries from the previous 7 days or between GHAWG-U posts if the time between them is short. For Part 21, there are 7 days' worth of diary entries. The first entry starts on 2024-March-18.

Before anyone scratches their heads at a few terms, here are 3 I began using many posts ago:

Term	Meaning
Rat Bike	Code name for #GHAWG (the first and current zapfic serial)
Blue Lion	Code name for the middle zapfic serial in the GHAWG Universe
The Bronze	Code name for the final zapfic serial in the GHAWG Universe

Monday, 2024-March-18

📓 As of today, Rat Bike shows Our Heroes in Gallup, New Mexico, US. I know enough about this part of the zapfic serial to say that some story days will feature multiple zapfic entries while some zapfic entries will cover vast distances. Just as "Cryptocurrency 101" will cover many zapfic entries, the next such moment to cover many zapfic entries will be the transformation of Our Heroes into "Felix Legion". In between will be a few zapfic entries featuring drone-based delivery while on the road. Shortly after the debut of Felix Legion, the crew leaves New Mexico to enter the Texas panhandle, a mishapen area of the state which contains Amarillo and that portion of Old Route 66. What happens here is anyone's guess; I haven't thought that far ahead.

📓 When Our Heroes become Felix Legion, the first to dress up wearing the new gear will be Lindsay Etxeberria. This is to make up for the fact that she was the last person to join up when she left behind the far-left activist life. It's also to give her her moment in the sun. For seven days on the road she will get to enjoy her new status as someone who belongs to this new group, a group unlike what he had been used to in her earlier life. After that, I will introduce some conflict to get the serial moving in a different direction. As for the rest of Felix Legion, the switch will be made in reverse order of their meeting David Guardia: Lionel Odunsi, Sanjay Rampersad, Frank Marchenko, Hank Marchenko, and Rhonda Bella Guardia. David himself will be the last person to switch to the new gear, and his changeover will by handled by his wife Rhonda.

📓 With the revelation of Felix Legion taking place on 2024-April-02, I need to track the number zapfic entries which will pass as Lindsay Etxeberria finds herself adjusting to this new identity. In terms of story time, it will be for 7 days before she has to deal with some unpleasant discoveries. Not including any bonus zapfic entries I may write either to provide a parallel sotry or to fill in gaps from earlier, it could take more than 7 zapfic entries. I'm tracking this in the zapfic queue as I add those entries.

📓 I'm looking ahead in the digital maps to see what's out there me to use to advance Rat Bike. Soon Our Heroes leave New Mexico for Texas. However, Old Route 66 doesn't cover much ground in Texas as it crosses the misshapen Panhandle area. Before I know it, Our Heroes are in Oklahoma heading to Oklahoma City. It fels as if I'm running out of runway, so to speak. I'm not sure what I'll find, but now that my mind is aware of this situation the subconscious will help me figure out how to advance the sotry further.

📓 Weekly Summary is due tomorrow, and it will feature the sequence of zapfic entries I call "Cryptocurrency 101"; it's where a "Bitcoin ATM" is sued as a vehicle to introduce Lindsay Etxeberria to the wils and wacky world of cryptocurrency. Everyone has their moment in the sun during this sequence. Along the way David Guardia gets to explain abit about decentralized social media powered by Hive blockchain. It turns out that David was not the only person among Our Heroes who had created a Hive account. This Weekly Summary post will make use of LeoFlow tool developed by @ThorkellNFT as a way to make it easier for us to add links to entries found in @leoglossary.

📓 Although I haven't added new zapfic entries to advance Rat Bike, I found a few gaps which need to be filled from earlier in the zapfic serial. Although Sanjay Rampersad and Lionel Odunsi joined up with David Guardia shortly after he checked himself out of the hospital after he was fully healed from the near-fatal explosion, it's not clear how they found him. The first mention of The Kids by name takes place after they introduce themselves to Lindsay Etxeberria in Oregon, and that's too late both for documentation and SEO purposes. So I wrote at least 3 bonus zapfic entries for them. These zapfic entries also let us know abit more about The Kids. For example, both ride British-made motorcycles: Sanjay has a Triumph, and Lionel rides a Royal Enfield. It's details like these which add dimension to these characters. Although a bit more detail exists for The Twins, Hank & Frank Marchenko, they too need more to their history. I'll do for the Brothers Marchenko what I did for The Kids.

Sunday, 2024-March-24

📓 I'm a day late with the Weekly Summary post; it's done, only now I'm having trouble publishing it to InLeo. I'll try it again later. If I can't get this post published before midnight local time, then Monday I'll need to do a 2-for-1 post special with the Weekly Summary first and later in the day Part 21 of The GHAWG Diaries.

When (and Where) To Catch #GHAWG

When

This is the normal schedule for the posting of content for #GHAWG:
● Daily -- Each zapfic entry is posted shortly after midnight, from New York
● Weekends -- Weekly Summaries (with modified screen capture from LeoThreads as cover image) are usually on Saturday, sometimes Sunday
● Monday -- Either GHAWG, Uninterrupted if present, or The GHAWG Diaries
● Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday -- GHAWG Behind the Scenes -- The goal is to publish these posts on all days not dedicated to the Weekly Sumamry, GHAWH-U, or The GHAWG Diaries (TGD). There may be days with no post, so I'll minimize those occasions as best as I can.

(Plese note that the Weekly Summary posts will be posted on an accelerated schedule-- every 6 days rather than every Saturday-- in order to bring those posts in synch with the daily zapfic entries. Synchronization should be finished by Spring 2024.)

Where

● Daily zapfic entries drop at LeoThreads, usually posted shortly after midnight from New York (sometimes around noon)
● All long form posts-- Weekly Summaries, GHAWG-U, and TGD-- can be accessed using the #GHAWGnav sticky post or from my LeoFinance profile page

That's it for this edition of The GHAWG Diaries. I'm ^[!!]
