Gifts from Terry

Poking through my fiction files tonight, making sure I've saved my Lotus Word Pro files to .txt format before upgrading to Windows 10, just in case I can't get SmartSuite up and running afterwards. And found this in the notes for my urban fairy work-not-in-progress:

Like Pterry's comment about awesome -- they inspire awe.

As I said in my post the day after he died - I owe him so much.

That's rather lovely... it's what makes a writer special to us, isn't it?

Do let me know whether SmartSuite runs in Windows 10. That would be the one reason for not updating as all my business databases as well as my personal address book are in Lotus Approach and without those I'm dead in the water. I love Lotus Approach with a deep love. It's elegant, easy and powerful. I could never get on with MS Access.
