Welcome Back! …or What had Happened Was…

Welcome back to the website!

So, in 2016, while I was taking care of my grandmother, I missed the (multiple) e-mails from my hosting provider warning me that my credit card on file had expired and my hosting wouldn’t be able to auto-renew. When I did realize it, finally, my website was long, long gone. To add insult to injury, apparently I’d moved my backup folder in Dropbox and neglected to update the backup path, so none of it was backing up. It sends an e-mail every time it attempts a backup, but you have to actually read the e-mail to know whether it succeeded or failed. I hadn’t been reading the e-mails.

I couldn’t find any of my own backup files, including all the graphics I’d made for the site. I always back up every iteration of a graphic when I’m making it. But all the graphics for this site? Gone. I have no idea how that happened.

Apparently, the Universe decided I needed a brand new website.

This Patreon image was the only image I’d created that I could find.
