Computer down

Just an FYI, the computer I typically use for Shred stuff—reading and editing stories, yes/no/maybe, upcoming schedule, payment tracking, etc.—has given up to ghost. The data may be recoverable, which would be convenient and save me a bit of time; if not, I’ll just spend some time digging through other records to recreate the missing info. Bobbles will, hopefully, be limited and not extend past this week.

    Will we need to resubmit any stories we sent recently?

    No, the e-mail server is fine at the moment. (Though I’m being slow again, for reasons completely unrelated to this round of computer unpleasantness.) As far as submissions go, the main thing I lost (at least temporarily) is the neat little set of directories and text files cuing me which stories I’d already read but hadn’t gotten around to replying about yet. So for subs, my worst case scenario is just sitting down and opening everything waiting for a reply, reading the new stuff and re-sorting everything I recognize as having read already.

    Shouldn’t be too bad. And if it was really important data, I’d have backed it up. Because I always do that. Of course. Really.
