I just learned that scrivener has a snapshot function that lets you save various versions of your chapters. Unfortunately, I found this out because I was trying desperately to recover a lost chapter. Kids, if you're going to work on multiple devices, make sure to close one before opening the other.

Guys, can I admit that my anxiety and nightmares are so bad right now, that I literally fantasize about writing letters to Mackenzie Scott or Taylor Swift, begging them for enough resources to get my loved ones out of this country? How sad and pathetic is that?
