A disaster...

I faced a disaster this week. I needed to check a detail I had put in a story I had started but not finished... but could not find the manuscript! I have looked through every piece of paper, every nook and cranny twice and still can't find it. Even worse, I had started typing it up onto computer but only got to page 11! I now have to face rewriting it completely while knowing I had some good scenes in there.

My only, feint, hope is that I took it to my mum's to work on and left it there - but I can't check until she gets home from New Zealand!

The thought of all that work done for nothing...
