Chapter Text
I am SOOO excruciatingly sorry, everyone.
Unfortunately, posting will be on hiatus indefinitely due to bullshit.
BARELY over 2 weeks ago, I bought a laptop bag so that I could take my laptop to work instead of a notebook because I can type faster than I can write by hand, 2 days a week. Yesterday, JUST as I got home from work, one of the fabric loops that the strap clips to entirely ripped off, my laptop fell about 3 feet from my hip to the ground, and NOW IT DOESN'T WORK!!!! Amazon is refusing to take responsibility for a faulty product they endorse by hosting it on their site simply because it's not THEIR product. The proper way to handle this from their end is that they fix it for me and then THEY go after the company responsible for THEIR compensation. But no, now I have to spend part of today calling a janky Chinese company demanding they fix this issue because my LAPTOP should be SAFE in a LAPTOP BAG designed for carrying LAPTOPS.
I'm currently at my local library typing, copy, and pasting this message into all of my active stories.
This does NOT automatically mean I won't be doing any writing for that time. I do still have notebooks and all of my stories are backed up on flashdrives, which I updated maybe a week ago after I started a new fic. If I still manage to get a decent amount of writing done during my crisis, it's NOT impossible to see my next scheduled post up on time.
9/17:
After contacting support again, this time on the phone, it looks like Amazon WILL be taking responsibility for this. They even took a report of the conduct of the people I dealt with in chat the night before. I'm pretty damn sure I was lied to and given the run around because, when I asked to be escalated, it took 3 tries to get one. The first person, said nothing and dipped back out. The second asked, AGAIN, if I was sure I wanted to escalate. Can't say when, but that's what's happening right now.
And thank you to everyone supporting me through this crisis!!!
