Has No Life - Lives on TB
Ok, I am currently uploading the archive to Google Drive. Note that I did check things out, it has two sections in the download (used HTTrack way back when). Frugal Archive Fiction Complete Works (which appears to be intact) and Frugal Squirrels Patriot Fiction Archives (which is not. Page 1 thru 8 seem to be ok, then page 49(?) thru 58 are accessible. Now, not saying that the stories are not there, but the links in the file that point to them don't find them. I suspect they may be down in the file structure, to be honest, never took the time to track down. But considering the size of the archive, it would not surprise me.

Will post the link when it finishes uploading. :D

Thank you! Always looking for more to read.

I have a fair bit saved from various places that I haven't yet read plus what I got on Amazon, so I should have enough to keep me occupied if there is an extended internet outage. I really should get them transferred over to my recently purchased laptop since it uses less power. I have a couple of small solar panels and am looking to get more after I move before the end of the year. Probably should get them onto my tablet also.

Ok, got curious and did some digging, followed the links in the archive down deep into the file structure. Sure files and part of the Frugal Site are there - but it's not the story section. Looks like HTTrack took a wrong turn at some point, and downloaded a lot of the Patriots and Survivalism section of the site. Then about page 48 it switched back to the Story Archive. Wierd. Wish i had known at the time. Oh well. Still quite a few stories there to peruse!

Here is the link =>> Frugal - Google Drive

Now, when you extract this (I recommend you extract to C:\Frugal), start extracting, then go get a cup of coffee. Several times. This will take a while. There are almost 45,000 files in this thing, with ~ 2300 folders.
