owlectomyThey weren't able to recover any of my data.
The good news is, they are going to refund the money I put down for data recovery, so (even if I probably shouldn't) I'm going to consider that as Money Already Spent and use it for a new computer. And a big external hard drive to set up for automated backups.
The bad news is, well, everything else.
For the writing, I'm going to go forward and finish the book as if the words I lost were behind me already, and go back for them when I'm done, because I know that I cannot handle rewriting them now. I guess I should go back to my earlier backup and sketch out the scenes that happened in the bits I lost, while I still remember them. And let's just say I'm going to hit my deadline because it's kind of possible.
