New Year – New Start on Novel

I’m saddened to say that I have restarted my novel. I did not want to, I was quite happy to finish it off, however… life is apparently determined that I start out 2009 with a full clean slate.

On the 28th of December my computer got infected by the virtumonde virus, resulting in a situation very much like the one this fellow described. I, however, could not get onto anoher computer to access forums for help, and virtumonde disabled everything right down to my ability to print my novel. :::wails!!!::: So, I have been forced to save my laptop by resetting it to factory specifications, and given the hard lesson of why I should backup my writing – OFF MY COMPUTER – every night before I shut down the writing program to surf the Internet or check my e-mail.

Still growling about idiots that have nothing better to do with their time than make viruses and crap like that.
