Lost files, motivation killed

I've been working writing a couple book series and had most my files stored on a flashdrive. You'd think being in IT I'd be taking advantage of all the solutions for cloud storage out there. Google Drive, One Drive, Dropbox, and whatever else is out there that I haven't heard of yet. But nope, I went and stored the stuff on a flashdrive. Things like the plot map, maps, notes, snippets, and first draft of my 6 book fantasy series. Drafts of my Stealth Ninja series, plus notes and things (Although, that one i've got print-outs papering a section of wall and I hadn't done as much work on).

You know when you spend weeks, months, or years, into building an RPG character and then either the character sheet gets destroyed or someone hacks you account and steals all you stuff? Or you game glitches out and you feel like all the air is knocked out of you because you put all that work into it and now it's gone? Yeah, that's how this feels. I mean, I have pieces in other places. I have notes elsewhere, and the pieces to put my first draft together again, and I think I got a print-out of the map somewhere, and I've still got the overall story in my head and notes on my phone, but it just felt like I had done a lot of work to get it all centralized.....and now I can't bring myself to go to that much work again.

The motivation is pretty dead right now. I'm trying to pick myself back up, but it's not working. Startin' to question myself.
