So, my computer decided to be fucking stupid, and I lost at least two thousand worth of text from the chapter that i'm currently writing.
Needless to say, it's going to take even longer for me to finish this chapter. I am now going to have to retype almost everything. This just makes me fucking livid. And i had no reason to believe there was a problem otherwise. It was saving the chapter. So i close word and open it back up only to find more than half of what i've typed is just gone.
As it stands, the next chapter won't be up until late July. With this recent development, I've lost the will to write. don't worry, i'm not giving up entirely. I'm just exceedingly angry right now.
Please bear with me while i try to deal with this.

I suggest switching to word online or google docs so stuff like this doesn't happen again.

It's because I decided to try the auto-save feature on word. Yeah that clearly a mistake. Going back to manual saving. Feels better anyway.

wow, that's unlucky. I've been using google docs for like 5 years and this never happened to me. sorry man.

Thanks. Luckily it wasn't a whole lot. And I can approximately rewrite what was lost. It's just a pain in the ass.
