I went through the Trash on Google Drive and pCloud, and I found heaps of old PDFs and .txt docs from the past 5+ years. I just made a big folder called "WRITE SHIT" and stored them on Proton Drive and my local machine.
Some of it is ok, most isn't. Some are 30K word "offline" journals, some are short "personal experience essays". One reads like a small dissertation. And a few are poems, haikus.
Silly junk. Writing is not a total waste, but I def am not amused by it any longer. An update? Sure. IRC messages, great! E-mail with friendos, I'm on it! Dribbling about daily thoughts - nah. I'll keep those on my local device (my brain). ;)
later
i wonder about those essays :)
