Garage thoughts: Random thoughts
So I wrote the second diary entry of Diary of a Serial Killer. I thought it was pretty cool. My wife thought it was freaking creepy and yeah, it was a little of both, depending on which side of the fence you're on when it comes to this genre.
I was ready to post it, on Thursday I believe, then the shit hit the fan. Thing is, I wrote it on a word doc on my phone. Unlike word on a PC, it isn't as user friendly and instead of copying the content I somehow managed to cut it (I think) and paste some crap I previously copied (clipboard vibes) into the document. Before I could mentally react to what was happening my dumbass fingers already hit the touch screen, sending the diary entry into oblivion, leaving me with nothing more than what was a previous post title... or some shit like that.
UGH!!
As fictional writers can tell you, if it's gone, you can't replicate it. I can re-write it, which I will but that was quite a challenging entry to work through. I really had to work on getting the flow right yet keep it like a diary entry.
Hmmm, maybe I'll just go and shove a knife into some raw meat for motivation... Just kidding!!
Typing on my cellphone, Again! Hopefully this time the content will reach its intented destination.
Enough to make you pull your hair out, working on phones just does not happen, using the laptop is bad enough.
A typist of many years, my sons managed to buy me a great keyboard that really looks and feels like a typewriter, it is my confidence and speed using the desktop or I would have been walking 'square circles' a long time ago @therneau
Oh yes... and save, save your work all the time, you never know when someone will pull the plug on power.....
I guess these things happen hey.
Well, I'm glad you managed to find something that works for you. Sounds pretty cool.
No pics PFFT we want pics ;P
Haha, funny guy 'eh.
Here are some pics for you ;)
Cheers
Hhahahahaahahahahahaahahaahahahhaha PFFFFFfffftttttt ;P Now who's the funny guy.. LOL, nice one bruv ;)
Of boy that is soooo frustrating...this is me shouting out...'Justine!!! hide all sharp objects!!!'
Jokes aside, this happened to me on my cellphone as well, did a cut and it pasted an older item!
Ugh, yep, it is frustrating.
There's no need to hide the sharp objects, lol.
Not so sure about that! LOL
Haha @lizelle. Shame I felt really sorry for him and still tried to help him recover it. It's happened to me before with Steepshot so I know how frustrating the whole thing can be.
How do you find Steepshot, I hear it's quite good?
I really enjoy it when its working... There have been quite a few bugs which they've resolved now but if your internet connection isn't good you can still battle with it.

Been on holiday without a laptop for 5 days now. Been tempted to post from my phone but was worried that something like that would happen to me. Sorry you lost your work...look forward to another creepy episode soon!
Oy Vay, sounds like a calamity! Thank you for the kind support during our move and at last I am reunited with my favourite PC and at last we have an internet connection now here at the cottage on the apple farm. Before you ask, we are settled in the Elgin Valley near Grabouw. Blessings and upvoted! @therneau
