Effing b****cks!!
AARRRRGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
Bloody technology!
One of my USB memory stick thingys has died. It was fine yesterday, but today - kaput. Luckily, most of the stuff that was on it was backed up - it was mostly fic - mine and stuff I'm beta'ing for other people. But there were two documents on it that I hadn't had a chance to back up, that included big chunks of newly written stuff.
Bugger.
I only wrote it yesterday, so hopefully, I'll be able to dredge it up from my brain.
But if anyone out there, who's far more techno-savvy than I am (which, let's face it, is practically EVERYBODY!) has any ideas, I'd be only too pleased to hear them!

I use these USB sticks as back ups, but occasionally, if I'm working on the laptop, I save stuff straight on to them and then transfer it to the PC later. But yesterday, I just didn't get around to it. I'm so pissed off. Like I said, it's not much, but it's fresh stuff I wrote yesterday, and whilst I can sort of remember it, it's still a pain in the bum. :(

I too am tech-challenged, so can be of no practical help whatsoever. I will however try to send you some inspirational and encouraging thoughts from across the pond.

Lucky I sent you back that latest draft yesterday!
It really is only two documents I'm after - the doooooom one, and the, you know, other one because I wrote some of both yesterday. And yes, I can more or less remember what I wrote, I still hate having to do it again! Grrrrrr!!

Nooooo!
Somtimes I find that a low-tech solution - such as giving the thing a good smack - will do the trick. At the least, it might make you feel a bit better.
