I had that happen in the middle of writing an early story here.
I ONLY copy and paste my stories from another writing app now.
Hard learned lessons.

Same thing happened to me with SBG. I had to rewrite a chapter.

The minimum I always do when posting something (that consists of more than a few words) is to copy it to the clipboard. For longer texts, I copy everything to a text file, but for shorter text, the clipboard method may suffice.

The only problem with this method is making sure you remember to follow through with the copy. I can't tell you how many times I told myself as I was writing something that I needed to remember to CTRL-A, CTRL-C and hit the Preview button out of pure muscle memory...

Oh, this quickly becomes after a while. You can use the keys, but also the mouse, or a combination. ;)

I am actually surprised that anyone would ever try writing an entire chapter in this embedded text editor. Even without the glitches, it is a bit troublesome to write in something that only give you 14 lines on the screen at one time. If you want a free text editor that has robust features, here:
