I was writing my first FA story since...jeez, a year? I've just been so busy and focusing on a novel I hope to get published. I sat down and wrote 19 pages, saved it and went to bed. When I woke up this morning my computer had an error and my file is GONE. Lets just say I threw a bit of a fit.
Here is what I have done: When I open word it shows it as a recently saved document when I press file keyso I know I saved it. When I click on it it gives the error "The document name or path is not valid" and when I search for it the computer claims it does not exist and it is not in my recycling bin. After bawling my eyes out for over an hour I thought I'd ask you guys if this has ever happened to you/what I could do to recover it.
I REALLY want to get this story back, it was so perfectly worded I know I cannot just sit down and spit it back out like I normally would. It was one of those moments where I just literally sat down at five in the evening and the words just spilled out.
Please, if someone has a suggestion let me know!
