To all of you that have been reading my Torchwood/Buffy The Vampire Slayer crossover "Damaged Souls", I'm letting you know that as of right now, there's going to be a hiatus.
My flashdrive chose today of all days to fail and in that I've lost all my school notes and essays from the last year and every fanfic I've been working on. I had been working on Chapter 17 at the time and had made a couple edits to Chapter 16 after sending it to my beta, so I've lost those edits as well.
I am so sorry to all of you who were looking forward to a new chapter, but I'm without options as of now. The edits I had made to Chapter 16 made pieces make more sense and I made the edits a week ago, so I can't remember just what they were and I don't think it's up to the standard you guys are used to without the edits.
Please bear with me, you guys. We're doing everything we can to try and recover this information. We've asked at Staples, where I bought the flashdrive, and the most they could tell us was that it was so corrupted that it was actually reading that the flashdrive was empty and that they could send it to a place in California to get the data strip out, but it would cost us a thousand dollars.
I hate that this happened on a Thursdays of all days because I had wanted to give you guys this chapter, but things just apparently aren't working for me right now.
I will finish this fic, I promise you guys that. But being almost 3,000 words into Chapter 17, I am not looking forward to rewriting it if there's any chance that I can get it back as is.
Again, I am so sorry.
I'll keep you posted.
