#WritersCoffeeClub 6 May: What does your usual workspace look like? Share a picture.
Prepare to be horrified!
Nobody has ever accused me of being a neat freak. (And yes, the shiny things in the top right of the pic are Hugo awards.)

in reply to Jonathan Cremin • • •Public Service info from the volunteer chief archivist at datamuseum.dk:
NEVER use flash-based storage for archival purposes.
Not CF, not SD, not USB-sticks, not SSD, not NVME, nor any other flash-technology based storage media.
Flash is simply not a stable storage mechanism: Just like Dynamic RAM it will eventually forget your bits.
Unfortunately there are no good choices for long term data storage, but flash is a particular bad choice.
