how much you rely on your computer until something goes wrong.
Today i've spent best part of 10 hours writing a single Gaby chapter - a task that generally takes less than half that time. The reason? The files I needed to check for continuity were on my dead computer so I had to go a very roundabout way to access copies. A two minute job became half an hour and then had to be repeated - grrr, so annoying!
So, this is aimed at all the authors out there in particular, don't be a lazy clutz like me, back up your files regularly! Oh and keep multiple copies of your words so if things do go breasts skywards you can recover stuff. I've learnt the hard way this last couple of weeks.
