Archaeologists have discovered the world's oldest break-up letter sent by a 6th-century BCE Neo-Babylonian King to one of his favorite concubines. Thrilling yes? It's on a tablet of sorts and its discovery made me positively giddy. As a writer and collector of letters, I garner a great deal of excitement from the very idea that we can touch words and set them in stone. If you had words to set in stone, what would they be? I'm working on mine. In the meantime, if you'd like to share yours, please do. Beep Me.
