Hello on Thursday! What kind of a writing day has it been today -- or yesterday, if today hasn't gotten going yet?
- I thought about my fic once or twice
- I wrote
- I did some planning and/or research
- I edited
- I've sent my fic off to my beta
- I posted today!
- I'm taking a break
- I did something else that I'll talk about in a comment

Date: Thursday, October 27th, 2016 12:44 (UTC)I have a folder of my writing on my computer, which is backed up to a backup drive regularly, as well as to a flash drive. I also have copies of what I am currently working on in Dropbox so I have access to my most recent writing. I'm thinking of adding another backup source but haven't decided which one I want to use as yet. I did almost lose something vital back in the days of floppy disks. My laptop computer suddenly started to fail, and I forced it to save a story I was working on a bit at a time onto a floppy disk, which also then started to fail when I transferred it to another computer. But I managed to get enough of the story saved that I was able to continue it the way I wanted to. After that, I've been pretty careful about backing up.

Yes, I've lost things years ago when both my computer and external hard drive died within a week. *facepalm*
