As with most things, there's a story behind that. You see, most of what I know about technology, I learned for myself by reading teh intarwebs. And in most of that, there are words and phrases that I don't know and I just assume they mean something to someone and eventually I'll work it out. Unfortunately, one of those phrases for years was "back up". Somehow, I got it into my head that this was some highly skilled, technical activity like programming or something like that, and that you had to *know* how to do. I never had anyone to explain to my that what it really meant was "keep your stuff in more than one place"...
So yes, I'm currently trying to get my stuff sorted out and backed up - my DW account has got most of my stories in now (although I need to start actually using the damn thing properly) and I do have copies on our desktop at home, but it's a long, slow process when you've never done it before!
