We have Time Machine but it's not hooked up. Sigh. I'll just have to start over.

Reviews are welcome anywhere! :) But this is where I hang out most of the time, so feel free to leave one here.

Honestly, I only post on ff because it's one of the very first sites I used to feed my han solo/princess leia obsession, years and years ago. I never read anything there these days since the content of most stuff is sooo bad.

*HUGS* Did it autosave any of it? I know that can be so annoying. You can rebuild, you have the technology! ;) I have loved your story from the start. Excellent work. *sending inspiration dust* Hopefully it will reconstruct itself in your mind even better than before.

No autosave. One second things were fine and the next everything was shut down. Thanks for the dust!

I'm so sorry - I've lost fic before in much the same way (and in stupider ways even), and it never gets easy, and worse, the lesson to CONSTANTLY SAVE only sticks for a little while.

Sit, breathe, mourn, and then get back to it as soon as you can. It won't be the same, but it'll be good, I promise.

What kills me is I had the notion to quickly save the doc, but I was on a roll and didn't want to take the time to do it. Oh, the irony.

What kills me is that I don't have a lot of free time to write these days, so I was happy to crank out what I thought was a good chapter while dinner was cooking and kids were all occupied. Grrr.
