Well, as you may know, if I said something, I was working on the prologue to my story, Andromeda, and said I would post it here when it was done. Well, my computer started going screwy, so I decided to wipe it. I made a restore disc, with my important files on it, and wiped my computer. For some reason, the restore disc didn't work. So I lost everything. Thankfully, though, I had sent Andromeda to a friend, who was able to send it back to me.
Now, because of what happened, I was wondering if anyone here would like to help me out by also being a safekeeper of my writings. My stories and such are very important to me, most of which I could not recall if I completely lost. So I was thinking, maybe ask some people here for help. I'll compress the file, and send it either through an email every time I update it. Any takers?

I was going to say the same thing.....fictionpress.com is my life saver if any of my stories were ever somehow wiped from my computer.

While I am going to put it up on fiction press, I'd still like to have a few humans with it too, in case the site goes down by some kind of freak accident or something.
Yes, I know, I'm extremely paranoid

If you have a CD burner just burn the files to a re-writable disc, I've never relied of computer made back ups I store all my things on CD's and it works out great.
Failing that, why don't you just get one of your friends to hold your writing? IF you give you work out to people over Gaia and other sites its likely the works will get stolen, lost or the person will become unreachable.

You can just keep it your journal on gaia if you want, and if you think it's not safe in there, just set it to private too.

If you write screenplays, register your completed script with the Writer's Guild West. The Guild will keep a copy of your screenplay on file for three years before you have to renew it.
