SLICES: Computer Crash At Deadline — How Do Creatives Manage?

from Scott Sigler Slices: MIX TAPE VOL. 1 · host Scott Sigler

Accidents happen. Some are worse than others. For a creative, a total computer crash is not great—especially when under a heavy deadline. Scott & A talk about how we dealt with it during the final weeks of Scott’s active deadline for SLAY. What plans and procedures did we already have in place that let us keep writing? What did we miss that hurt us? What should you do to protect your priceless work? Pro tip: no matter how you back up — be sure to back up. Even just a flash drive separate from your computer can help.  — Slices is created by Scott Sigler and A B Kovacs — Produced by Steve Riekeberg — Production Assistance by Allie Press — Copyright 2026 by Empty Set Entertainment  Never give up, never surrender And never spill coffee on your laptop if you can help it. If you do take that spill, tell us all about it using GoDaddy Promo Code CJCFOSSIG3 to get you ninety-nine percent off your first year of a new domain. That’s a lot of coffee.
