Date: Tuesday, September 19th, 2017 23:08 (UTC)I use a lot of online storage accounts that are free and I have one external hard drive that I am really careful about using for writing because they have crapped out on me before.

Date: Wednesday, September 20th, 2017 12:59 (UTC)I've had a few experiences with failing hard drives that keeps me cautious about making sure I have multiple backups of my writing. I have a folder for my writing on my desktop, and my computer files get backed up regularly to an external backup drive. I also have a second external drive I use for storage and I put my writing on that, also. I also periodically save the new stuff in the folder on a flash drive. I haven't really put anything in online storage at this point, but I probably should. I have a few free accounts that I'm not using that might have enough space for everything.
