Day 64: I was in a quandary how I could make the next step to ease and efficiency in my writing. As much as I love my Chub, hand writing my notes and stories has become double trouble and started holding me back. I was using my laptop which has died a slow death after being infected by a Trojan Horse. And sitting down at my desktop after already working 8-10 hours in that same spot was not inspirational. Unable to swing buying a new laptop at this time, I started doing some research.
I am incredibly thankful to happen upon the ChromeBook phenomenon and Google Drive. Yes, I have to admit that my son has been on my case for awhile now about using gmail.com. I have now uploaded my chapters to Google Drive (another euphemism for The Cloud) and for under $200 was able to get this device that enables me to take my book anywhere with me for continued additions and editing with no flash drives or hard drives to worry about...it's just like a little gateway to my storage room in the sky. After having lost an entire children's book I had written several years ago to a damaged laptop, I am excited to have access to such a great way to save data. It can even go to bed with me...
