I totally understand. I don't think it will change too much for you! Here's a few options I'm thinking might work:
- You could use a calendar (digital or physical) to track where you are in the year and then label your writings in the google doc by date in a sort of diary style. (One of my early playtesters told me they wanted to try playing completely in google calendar, which I'd love to see.)
- If you do want the physical experience, you could maybe track down a day planner for maximum space.
- I also know that there are some Etsy sellers who make digital planners that are highly customizable, maybe in terms of space as well.
I hope one of these options works for you and that you enjoy your time with the game!
