Be an Information Hoarder

I found that being a hoarder helps my writing.

Not hoarding stuff, but information, and with today’s cheap mass storage it’s easier and more efficient than ever. Yes, I still have stacks of hardcopy, but scanning and indexing are the way to go.

I’m currently publishing stories in the writer’s community, “The Prose”, using storylines and ideas that I developed 20, 30, even 40 years ago. In addition, there are photographs, articles, and reference material that were not useful at the time, but are now invaluable.
