The Lost Pages


So, as you may or may not know, I haven't been writing my 3000 words a day lately. But I did get on one day and do 1500, of which I was very proud...

Until I came back on a few days later to do some more and found that all 1500 of them had been deleted.

Seriously, it was gone! I don't know what my computer did with it (eat it?), but everything I wrote that day was missing. This was really, really bad, as I had to start rewriting the scene and the 2nd version sucked much worse than the 1st.



So, now I'm avoiding the book because the last few pages SUCK, and the other pages I wrote DIDN'T. Stupid computer. What in the world could it have done to my 1500 words?

The lost pages are haunting me, people. What do I do to get over them? Better yet, does anyone have any ideas on how to find them?
