I’m trying out alternatives to Google Docs, because they get more suspicious by the day.

I have (and mostly like) Scrivener once I transfer stuff over from Postbox, but there’s no real ability to share work, and their cloud storage is clunky even when it works (and also relies on a Dropbox subscription, no thanks!).

So now I’m trying Dabble and I have to say, I’m really liking it. It’s expensive, but they’re working on sharing features, and the cloud storage/devise sync is as close as I’ve found to GD that’s also got similar features to Scrivener.

I thought about trying Ulysses but it sounds like the sync between devices features isn’t great, and people have lost work (which is my nightmare).

I also thought about looking at open source tools, but I don’t want to rely on the kindness of strangers that the tool will persist, and I’m also leery of spyware. Plus, honestly, now that I have a little money again, I’d like to pay someone to create a writing tool *for* writers, and where I’m the customer, not the product.

If anyone has recs for a writing tool other than Dabble, I’m all ears!

So. I lost a whole day's worth of writing and I'm sad about it. I had been using Dabble, which I actually loved but it was a trial and it expired. Since this is not the month to be getting new subscriptions to things, I decided to move my WIPs into something else.

I got this thing called Zettlr, LOVE IT. Moved the whole of the fanfic so far into it but when I went back to get my massive outline, it was gone.

Poof.

I ended up spending way too much time trying to figure out how to get it back. Emailed Dabble support but never heard back, and idk what else I can try.

Super thankful that I got the actual story out, but I really needed the outline!!! I had the next 6 chapters super detailed and now I have to try and remember everything. And my memory sucks!

I was really hoping to get chapter 9 done before Christmas, but that's not looking very likely at this point.

Anyway. It's fine. It's all gonne be fine.

Rant over lol
