Ok, now this is a fact that you should've followed since you were given a computer at a young age-SAVE LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT. This is especially true if you are a writer, after all no one wants to spend 2 hours writing a really nice review and critique of their favorite reviewer's newest review only to see it gone in a flash because you didn't save the information at a critical point.
This is why I prefer to use Google docs so often. It automatically saves all of my data so I don't have to worry about hitting that save button again and again to make sure I am safe. That, and that allows me to come back to the work from anywhere else and continue.
But, I know that sometimes, your computer does bad things: Virus, malware, trojans, hard drive crashes, overheating, and so much more. And then you have to reset the computer and get it back into operation but you lose the data in the process. What to do?

Has a few ideas. Jut remember, keeping your info is very important for your continued work as a writer
