MARCH AND APRIL MONTHLY-ISH UPDATE
This is a monthly update that I will be updating you with in regards to the months of March and April, perhaps May as well.
Hello friend,
While I’m sure you haven’t, I know you’ve been wondering greatly where I’ve been, what I’ve been writing, where the hell that one about the melatonin is, how I’m doing, what I had for breakfast yesterday, etc., etc., etc.. What I’m sure you haven’t been not wondering most of all is whether or not I’m going to ever come out with another monthly update.
“Where is the Macray’s Newsletter monthly update?!?! I’ve been waiting the whole month of March! and now April is almost overrr! C’moooon…”
-You to all of your friends
It’s probable that the majority of you subscribed to Macray’s Newsletter so that you would receive monthly updates about pieces of writing that seemingly never come out, or monthly updates about previous monthly updates, and definitely not for poems, peoms, and heartwarming essays about sweet uber drivers (of which I have plenty more (maybe God is some type of interconnected species of uber drivers all connected via telekinesis or some type of root in the ground like those tree networks1)) and so I promise that this will be the last monthly update of this type. Instead, I would prefer this substack newsletter to be for completed works that I’m happy or mostly happy with, I guess mostly happy is still happy, and instead of providing chit chat banter like updates such as this one, or funnier fiction pieces that I’m just attempting, I’m going to use Macray’s Newsletter as a place to release greater works of mine, similar to the I met god in an uber essay from the beginning, similar to the multi poem uploads, but the poems will be edited with more care and time. I also plan to finally finish the melatonin essay, which I’m going to restart entirely and just tell the whole story, perhaps trying melatonin again as an older adult and seeing how it might react differently.
I’ve been spending a little time working on getting my website back up and running, with a new form factor and plans to be used as a portfolio. Essentially, www.macraybraxton.com will be what this substack was, and I will be emailing you from a different email address moving forward, so keep a lookout for that.
The email newsletter will go back to how it was originally, with completed happy works released, rather than putting out anything I want just because I can. Please check out www.macraybraxton.com, and there you’ll be able to see all of my completed works in an easy to read list, including film and photography projects, daily blog, and more2.
I teased that I was working on a film in a previous update, that is still being worked on, but I’ve had to take a short break. I will return to my progress on that very soon, hopefully I can have it finished by the end of May. It will be uploaded either to my youtube channel or on vimeo with a link to stream it for free on www.macraybraxton.com.
Thank you for reading.
I love you always, cheers,
According to www.Wikipedia.com, the largest organism is a network of trees which are all connected via their roots named Pando. Pando is a quaking aspen located in Sevier County, Utah, United States, in the Fishlake National Forest. It’s a type of tree called a male clonal tree and it has 47,000 stems that look like different trees, but are in fact all one tree. It’s like if a forest was all one tree, maybe that’s what it’s like to work as an uber driver.
But it’s not quite finished yet, so give me some time. I will send out another email from macray@macraybraxton.com once I have another update.
