That is such a scary time! All the doubts and panic seem to arise during the restore process.... The searching out of fonts. The refreshing of documents. The re-installing of programs. Boy howdy do I recall those times! That would be what led me to purchase a 4GB thumb drive which I use as my backup. I also plan on purchasing DVDs and using that to backup my pictures and images (very important when you utilize those for website design). I hope your new friend treats you better than your last one. And might I suggest saving the fonts used in each novel in your novel folder? That's what I do now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12509230761700506291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349284012085453255.post-83029586874506618842009-07-30T14:41:56.579-05:002009-07-30T14:41:56.579-05:00Tabitha, so glad you decide to visit.

I knew that was archaic, and once I reached 300+ pages I transcribed it onto my computer. Ease in editing and saving, don't ya know? <br /><br />I'll think of you kindly as I go out to buy a gross of good pens today, Tommie Lyn.
