Ladies and gentlement, there may be a serious problem on my end. "Serious problem" being that my computer's hard drive *may* have just crashed without any warning. Literally, no warning. It was perfectly fine last night. Perfectly fine until it froze this morning, leading me to restart it, and then there was "media detection failure" and "Operating ( Read more... )

If your harddrive is irrecoverable, I am truly, deeply sorry. That is one of my worst nightmares. I should be backing everything up, though, myself. Please take your computer to an expert, and hopefully it can be recovered.

Unfortunately, it's definitely looking like I won't recover anything from it. I did do a complete backup a few months ago, though, so it wasn't...quite as bad as it could have been. Thanks :)

Oh, no! That's horrible--you must feel awful! I've had that happen to me a couple of times and that sick feeling curls up in the bottom of your stomach, watching all your hard work go down the drain.

I really, really hope things turn out all right!

Considering how over my vacation I all but finished everything to do with ItM's climax...yeah, the sick feeling's pretty much my closest friend right now :S

As far as an update--I was actually tempted to post the night before, but was waiting for a friend to get back to me about some scenes. Now...I have the majority of it, actually, but I do need to go through and figure out what I didn't send her, and try to rewrite what I lost. Hopefully that'll be up in...I don't know. The weekend, maybe, but I'm working every day until Tuesday, I think, so. The chapters after that, though will take longer :(
