Trifextra: Week Ninety/ Cursed Computer


 Trifextra Weekend!
Welcome fellow Trifextrans, this weekend the lovely people over at Trifecta  are looking for a 33-word explanation of what scares you (character)  My contribution  is called Cursed Computer.




My computer flew across the room
“Hey! What’s wrong?”
“45 times I’ve written a master piece!  
 Each night I hit save and every morning I find nothing but a blank page.   
It’s cursed!


Thanks guys! Why not join the fun... Trifecta

    I feel this fear! I have actually deleted a WIP on accident before. Not backed up recently, of course :)

    Oh, I hate when the computer eats a document! Definitely terrifying. Great take on the prompt!

    That's more patience than I would have had. I would have given up after the first three times haha

      That's scariest thing in the world to an author.
