Date: 2011-09-15 10:26 pm (UTC)Leyden Papyrus! Sounds fascinating! That is my area of personal interest and study - AE medicine with an emphasis on the herbalism, etc. I would love to read some of what you have written. :)
Have you ever read anything by Pauline Gedge? To me she is the is the Gold Standard in the fictional realm of Ancient Egypt and her research is impeccable.
A co-writer of mine and I are actually putting together a writer's guide for ancient Egypt. There seems to be plenty of interest, but I think that sometimes bad research materials and previously published and poorly researched works cloud things up a bit.
I read this horribly written paranormal romance that dealt with Ninja trained vampires teaming up with buff Fallen Angels inhip hugging Levis. I didn't know whether to fling the book across the room or fall out of my chair laughing! ;)
