So, I've been writing a 175k word One Piece fanfic for about 6 months. Most of my writing is done on a 10 year-old laptop I dug out of the closet while I wait for my kid to finish sports practice. Today, the hard-drive died. (Thankfully I have a cloud backup.)

Now, without a laptop, I have nothing to continue working on. I can't afford a new laptop. Just glad I didn't lose all my work.

I don’t understand that first sentence, but doing this to bond with your child is amazing! I highly encourage you to have a second backup location of this! That’s almost two phd’s of writing!
