I have enough of these exercises in detachment (or whatever).

Another laptop-harddisk malfunction and 2 weeks of work probably lost.

Hours and hours of interview transcriptions, everything I’d been working on last week (just in one instance I’d been so clever to e-mail the finished draft to myself. In all the other cases I’d thougt to back-up, later this week).

Down with a cold now and I simply do not know where to find the time to make up for this.

PS It’s the second time that this happens while editing a book for Sonic Acts.
