If I Had It To Do All Over Again

If I had it to do all over again, I would be a writer. I once wrote several years ago, what I believe to have been my best work. However, I had just gotten my first computer and naturally I was typing my book on it, but should have been more conscientious to back it up. I was heartbroken when it crashed and I lost everything. I was too disheartened and hurt to start again, as I found it is not the easiest to be an author and proofread your own work and constantly revise. For me anyway it took a lot of thought and effort, although I loved every minute of it. However, being the perfectionist I am, when it comes to my work and all, I worked hard and for many long hours into the night, then morning. It felt so good. I entitled it, Desperate People With Deadly Diseases. And then.....

Zap!! And it was all over, but the crying. lol

How 'bout you?

I think I could have written short stories
@cherokeepatti I'm sure you could. I can tell from your posts. 👌

You still are a really good writer. I've done the same except my notebooks that i was writing in got stolen and also my ipad. Most of my writing though is either on here, in all it's raw form, or scribbled on the back pages of my books, so i guess i can always go back and try to start over again.

I know the guy who wrote, "Man's search for meaning." Lost his manuscript when he was forced into a Jewish concentration camp during wwII and he still managed to rewrite what he could remember.
@Lostpoet Well I really appreciate that, thank you so much. Sometimes I'm particular when I write here and sometimes, eh. lol

Tell me more. I hope he made it. 😫😢
@Lostpoet I'm sorry to hear your notebooks and iPad got stolen. What a shame. Who could do such a thing? It's so personal.
Ha-ha-ha, dearie... no doubt
I sit here n read.
Get up n restart remembering Jesus saves. Always. (I learnt it hard way - crying, screaming, sleeping over it all)

I like you using colors to type.
Now, Double up!

Stopppppp laughing. Only. One at a time.

I used to enjoy creative writing, now I am barely able to complete a sentence
@Iwillwait I'm so sorry. 😢

@LadyGrace No reason to be sorry. It just means I am in a healthier place.
