Tags

I am super tech-savvy.  I just added tags to previous blog posts and added a "tags" list to the side of the page.  Handy!

I don't know why I found it necessary to add a tag for ITL and a tag for "In This Land."  Redundancy is sexy?

The "fiction" tag will be used for discussions of general fiction.  Non-ITL fiction.  A post about Remin and Tano will be tagged with "ITL" and "In This Land," a post about my Trent & Jason short story collection will be tagged with "fiction," and a post about both will be tagged with both.

In a few hours I'll become irritated with redundant ITL/"In This Land" tags and get rid of one, so enjoy them now.  If they're still up when you read this, vote for which one you'd like to keep!

Back-up

Had a computer malfunction the other day.  Thought that I'd lost a novel, a short story collection, and assorted other bits of fiction.  Recovered everything, but I was Not Happy for a while there.

Was working on a different novel a day or two before that.  Remember how I mentioned earlier that I wanted to revive and edit a discarded novel?  I opened the original file, copied and pasted everything into a new file, and started working on that.  Came back the next day and started where I'd left off.  Then I realized that things weren't matching up.  Apparently, on the first day of edits, I'd been reworking the original copy; on the second day, I reworked the second file.  I tried to sort it out, but now I have half-a-dozen versions of the novel floating around my computer with various notes about which file is which.

Currently working out a new system for backing up my work.

Grump

For some reason, I can't upload to my site right now.  Not sure what the problem is.  I'm sorry for the glitch, and I'll have ITL updated as soon as I can.  Thanks for your patience.

Edited to add: Never mind!  Updated ITL anyway.  Problem-solving skills for the win!

Ugh

Apologies, apologies. I'll have the site back up as soon as I can. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.
