Just write. Many writers have a vague hope that elves will come in the night and finish any stories for you. They won’t. – Neil Gaiman

Reminder: DO REGULAR BACKUPS. Here’s my backup system and how it saved me when an Adobe Creative Cloud update bug ate my work.
Writers: don’t be ceremonious. When time’s available, WRITE. – Cory Doctorow, in Locus (“Writing In An Age Of Distraction”)
