Oh FUCK.

So I kept a list of books-to-check-out as a Gmail draft. I don't know why I did it that way, but that was obviously a bad way to do it because I accidentally deleted it, and now there is no way to get it back. Arrrrrrrgh. I dunno, this may not seem like a big deal, but I REALLY WANT THAT LIST BACK!!

So yeah. PSA: never keep important information in Gmail drafts.

ETA: I have partially reconstructed the list by going through my memory, the Tiptree award nominations lists for the last ten years, and Jo Walton's blog. But y'know, if you have books you think should be on my list, do tell me about them. : )

AUGH. It's SO tempting and easy to keep things there too. I was keeping potential thesis citations there and lines that didn't quit fit into the fic I was writing, but they have since all been moved to their own Gdocs. Which are less convenient, but safer.

Hope you get good book recommendations! (Still not reading. The library is going to want Dazzle of Days back soon...)

[luzula]

Yeah, so tempting! Google, why is the draft not just moved into the Trash folder when you delete it?!?

Ugh, that's awful! I keep my to read/to watch lists on Mac Sticky Notes, which are probably just about as unreliable. Maybe I should back them up somewhere...

What sort of books do you like? I am always excited to recommend SF/F stuff if you are into that. :D

[luzula]

Yeah, do back them up! Backing up is always a good idea (says she, after the fact).

Yes, I am totally into SF/F, so do tell me about your favorite authors there! : ) (You can see stuff I like and have read by clicking on my books tag, if you want, but obviously you don't have to check if I've read it before reccing it.)
