Have you tried writing by hand? I know it's a pain in the ass and it takes longer than typing, but I always have some spiral-bound notebooks around so I can write if the power goes out or something.

Also, get an external hard drive. After one of my computers crashing a few years ago, taking everything on it with it when I had to restore it to factory settings, I've been super paranoid about losing my work. I've got four completed novels and another one I'm working on on my laptop right now. I would hate to lose any of that hard work.

Three novels are published to Amazon and one is published here, so I can get that work back, but when I'm working on it, it would be terrible to lose it. So, I frequently back things up to the external hard drive. That way, if the laptop was to crash or break, I could easily upload all my document from the external hard drive onto the new computer and lose none of my work. It's a peace of mind kind of thing.

I hope you're doing better.
