I've lost so many drafts of writing that I have now got into the habit of writing on a word document first, it's easier to edit and alter before publishing - even then, I find I'm going back into the post once published.
The disappointment and anger at myself when I do lose a piece of writing is avoided (mostly) and I can always go back and read what I've written, taking snippets out as and when necessary, without trawling through my posts on Steemit (that's a bonus too because I usually get side-tracked on here lol)
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I am the same, I tap my stuff out sometimes in word sometimes in note pad but it's not till you see it in the editor you know it looks just right!
I've lost a few solid comments too when my mouse was over the reply button and my hand touched the ultra-sensitive keyboard, but I've been burned too many other times (on other platforms) where a piece was lost. I don't need that kind of anger in my life, so I've used Word to save everything.
