I’ve lost it… must retrieve my novel from the backup files
Saturday, November 3rd, 2007Okay, now I am really really annoyed. The copy of yWriter that I loaded onto my laptop the other day has got something wrong with it. When I tell it to save a scene and close it the thing does not save the scene. Even worse - it don’t seem to be saving *anything*. Even the old stuff for Heir to Magic poofed.
I found it all in the backup files on the program, and of course for Heir to Magic I have a backup on this computer and one on a thumb drive, but still… do you have any idea how heart stopping it is to open a book you have been working on for years and it’s no longer there. ::falls off chair in a faint::
So, the things I have to do just increased to include I have to also save all of my Heir To Magic stuff that I added in on the laptop since my last backup and my discovery of this unknown glitch. I have no clue what caused this, since I have been using yWriter for several years, and so have my friends, and I have never seen it do this before. If I don’t figure it out I may drop Spacejock a line just so he knows it happened to the program in case it is a glitch he’s been working out of it for some operating systems.
Ah well… back to work, then I can go write some more on Magic of Love: A Caregiver’s Story (my NaNoWriMo story).
