      Serious question: How do other writers in this day and age keep all of their writing? Like, how do I maintain everything I've written?

          When I started out I was obsessed w/clipping everything I wrote out & putting it into a binder.

          I'm thinking about hiring a college student & giving them an external hard drive to pull everything together? Is that dumb?

          id say as close as you can get to the source... Txt files, maybe markdown, plenty of backups, the better.

          last: I'd stay away from any long-term corporate backup. Companies can't even long-term themselves. Redundancy is your friend.
