Trouble accessing IGS manuscript while on the road
Added 2025-08-08 14:23:43 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry, everyone. This isn't some asinine attempt to drag out cliff hangers, but just a truly frustrating problem with Dropbox backups and Scrivener on my laptop not opening the latest file. I've spent the past hour trying to figure out what's going on, but both the main document and both backups are only showing a version that dates from a month ago.
I am actively not thinking about some awful overwrite having killed a month's worth of writing, and have decided this is merely a failure on my desktop's part to synchronize. As soon as I get back home on Monday I'll post today's chapter, Monday's chapter, and a bonus chapter as an apology.
If those chapters still exist.
Wish me luck.

Yeah I'm starting to get worried

But here's hoping it's the former. (To Phil: If it is the latter, please know that, while you may be very upset with yourself, I hope I speak for everyone here when I say that we aren't upset with you. With the situation, perhaps, but I don't think anyone reasonable could feel anything but sympathy for you if that's what has happened.)
