If you've made it this far into A Kind of Drug, you should notice I have a penchant for lengthy dialogue. I much prefer conveying character and story through witty banter than through exposition.But when your novel devolves into a one man show, that sort of becomes tough.

Mythmaker II has about 4 lines of dialogue in it and none of it is directed at an actual person. By this point in time, I was finding it increasingly difficult for me to tell the story because all I wanted to do was skim over everything and just get to the part where dialogue starts up again (yes, it happens soon). So, I mostly had to force myself to write this entire portion of the chapter and it was excruciating.

Wait, this has all been way too serious.

Uhhh....taco sauce? Dirty underwear? 

Fuck, I need a drink.
 
 
Today, a shocking turn of events. Beatrice returns from the end of Chapter 1 (click the tag on the right for more information) and ruins the family fortune by spending it all on taco sauce. Can you believe it?

Argentina is lovely, but this country makes me fat. I swear, when I get home, I'm eating nothing but green beans.

And taco sauce.
