Thanks for the advice from several folks on SOL!
We took a midmorning break from unloading; my friend hooked my USB keyboard up to one of his computers. It worked. He then did a bit of troubleshooting. Most likely when my laptop updated just after January 1st it resulted in an issue. Now resolved.
Now, both my On board and USB keyboards function.
I plan to be able to send a chapter or two to my proofreader.
I won't be home for a couple of days. I need to review what I have written before "dumping" it on my proofreader. Editing is my responsibility.
Due to my friend's move likely extending into next week, I will be busy.
I plan to get at least on chapter up by Sunday the 16th and then a Chapter a week starting on the 23rd.
I may not upload multiple chapters to catch up, but keep a couple in "reserve" to prevent similar gaps in the near future.
I expect to learn about my car later today, so I may have transportation issues effecting my ability to post chapters. I have some alternatives, but I cannot presume the person who has offered to drive me will be available every weekend.
Several folks from SOL have been generous with assisting in reviewing, proofreading, transportation, and other assistance.
I have helped, and will continue to help other authors. Readers may not be aware of the contributions required to provide all of the content here.
Thank you all very much!
