- About Me:
- I'm an archaeologist turned mystery writer. My novels, "Bound for Eternity" and "Dead Sea Codex" are based on my own experiences working in museums and on excavations in Israel, Italy, and Nevada. I also lived in Israel for a year as a junior in college (a long time ago!).
"Bound for Eternity" is directly related to my current job since it describes many of the highlights of our University of Illinois mummy project (told in a non-fiction book, "The Virtual Mummy") and the creepy old attic museum where I used to work. I moved the attic museum to Boston where I grew up.

Paper War
I've been waging a war on paper the last few days. So far, paper is winning. The more I clean up, the more of it I find. The problem is, for much of it, I feel an obligation to do a thorough examination and decide whether or not it's worth keeping.The mailperson is my enemy. He, sometimes she, keeps leaving more paper in my mail box. I'm not talking about my Christmas cards, which I cherish, but all the other stuff dropped off for me to sort out. At times it's torture to come home and see the new pile the DH has set on the kitchen table.
I've discovered tons of magazines over a year old. They were trying to hide in a magazine holder on the side of the couch, but not doing a good job of it, since they were spilling over. Of course, I decided to check the headings on the covers to see if some of the information inside might prove valuable. Wouldn't you know it, I was right. Many articles seemed to good to give up.
I've already mentioned here before about how I also have a compulsion to print out emails that seem important to me. The result is I have lots of important pieces of paper. When there's an abundance, which is the most important? And, where's the one I really need? It is a quandary.
What about you? Is paper your enemy? Are you also waging a war against it? Who is winning?
