h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I began a few hours ago writing an Entry on the early history of Barbershop singing. Having written a few pages, the Entry box suddenly went blank. By going back-arrow a few times I recovered my first two sentences. No chance that the rest is somehow retrievable?

I'm afraid it doesn't auto-save entries, which is why we suggest writing then in something like Notepad or Word first

It's awful losing work that way - I've done it a few times.

The one unexpected advantage is that when you rewrite it, you remember the salient points and your new wording is always far more succinct. some people advise writers to do a first draft, then destroy it and start again.

Too true. A character-building exercise

An auto-save is on the list of stuff to build, but it's after fixing the bugs I'm afraid

And there's still quite a few of those

Good news - it's been a while since I logged really new bugs mostly variations of old ones, and very rarely.






I jinxed it now, didn't I?

Yes.
