Tear Down the Old Brick Walls
We have just crossed a threshold more momentous than ever the tearing down of the Berlin Wall could have been.
Scientists have managed to entangle two diamonds at room temperature. This experiment forever erases the supposed micro/macro barrier for quantum effects. We now have proof that quantum phenomena do effect macro objects. It is a new world before us.
Everything is connected. We live in a world of our own design.

Quantum Entanglement Links 2 Diamonds
Usually a finicky phenomenon limited to tiny, ultracold objects, entanglement has now been achieved for macroscopic diamonds at room temperature
Much thanks to Facebook friend and fellow writer Timothy Scott Bennett for bringing this to my attention.
And here's a nice video on the Conscious Observer Paradox

Anniversary Series, Part 1
These meditations were posted on our anniversary last year, when they were composed. Now that we have reached their point in the entire oeuvre, I have chosen to give them a second airing. They deserve it. These are for my wife, Elizabeth, as are all of the meditations.

Fiddlesticks
Soon to be available in print and ebook….
Sixteen year old Ojibwa Rene DeClaire is disillusioned and alienated from the modern world in which she lives. She would rather play her fiddle, inhabiting the backwood of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, practicing the old ways and learning to be a shaman like her Grandma Rena. Her older brother Stephen lives in the forest, hiding from the government and the Eater of Souls. Her mother Judy worries about her children and their inability to compromise with the dominant civilization. But Grandma Rena knows how important it is that the siblings and their mother find the right path. She has dedicated her remaining days to helping all three of them to open their eyes.
Soon the younger DeClaires will find themselves in the World Under the Flesh, locked into a merciless battle to save the Heart of the Wilderness and the Land Between the Sky Waters from the Horde, the Blight and a powerful and corrupted shaman known as the Ogimauh.
Along the way, they will have many adventures, joined by other characters first introduced in the Tales of da Yoopernatural, as well as new friends of myth and legend. They will find this struggle for the World Under the Flesh is also a struggle to awaken the world from which they came, the World of the Flesh. And it all revolved around the Heart of the Wilderness, a magical fiddle, and a fiddlestick.
