NOooooooo... so unlucky
Someone really doesn't want me to be a writer.
Back when I was writing that snarry fic, my personal computer went down taking my polished first chapter with it. Since it was my first time writing I was devastated. Eventually my mother let me use her work computer at night, until she quit her job. For some reason she wasn't able to extract the files before turning it in. Though I was willing, the fic resisted all attempts at being revived a second time.
After these incidents I promised myself I'd be more cautious: do most of it in pen, keep everything on a flash drive, and upload it to the net. I just was going to transfer my first chapter from my personal computer, but lo and behold the damn computer won't start! Just sldghiosdhg~ Argh! Why, WHY?!
It's not a complete loss content-wise, but I've learned how important momentum is and that's quite a few hours down the drain if I can't get this thing fixed. Why did it have to shut down when I went to back it up? That's just cruel. I didn't even do anything! Usually when the computer breaks I'm reasonably certain I had it coming, but not this time! I have the worst luck.
