This morning someone came into the Clarion West house where we're staying and stole four laptops, some bags, clothing, and possibly other items.

Of course, these are our lives, especially right now.

We are all okay, and the house is secure, even more so now, but I was like to ask the SFF community for help.

Those who lost their laptops will not be able to replace these without detriment to their financial situation. These are essential for our writing, particularly over the next four weeks.

If you would like to help donate laptops or funds to those students who had their laptops stolen, please contact Leslie or Neile at infoATclarionwestDOTorg. More donation information may be forthcoming.

Thank you.

You know, stealing a laptop is one of the dumber things to steal. Just logging in will probably be impossible, so all you're going to be able to do is sell the thing for parts. Idiots.

I'm wondering if I can get one or maybe both of my old laptops up and running today... Later.
