I'm not a writer either (have loads of ideas, but somehow, they loose too much in the translation to the page)
I have to say that I can't imagine anything worse than losing something that you've spent so long nurturing.

Thank you all for your kind words. It's been almost 2 weeks now, and the pain is subsiding a bit, I'm just trying to look at positives rather than dwelling on what was lost. I am trying to decide whether to get cracking on redoing the parts of that project I lost or whether to start on a new idea I had and come back to the other later. Either way, I'm not going to let a couple of rotten theives deter me from writing!

I didn't lose my writing, but some expensive recording equipment with original music on it and stuff. The police came, and later they showed us some laptops, but none were ours. Best of luck,

Yes, identity theft has been playing on my mind a bit, since there was so much ID in there, 2 credit cards, an eftpos card, medicare card, drivers license and a couple of bills too. I am hoping that they are just small time theives who were happy with the cash that was in there and don't try to do anything further with what was in there...

Hope for the best, plan for the worst.
