I used to work part time at a bookstore and I love to read, especially about faith, philosophy, science, and sci-fi and fantasy.

Originally posted on Physics and Art:
A new distance record has been set for entangled communications. Entanglement is what Einstein referred to as “spooky action at a distance.” When two quantum particles are entangled, their states are then paired.

Warfighter: Middle Earth
Originally posted on The Angry Staff Officer:
When I think of the six warfighting functions I always think of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings. What, you don’t? Let’s be honest, one does not immediately think of fantasy or science fiction when conversations turn to Army doctrine. Most vignettes that are used to make the…

I am not a fan of this current fad to strip all dialogue tags! This is the current wisdom in editing. It’s believed that things that are not “said” or “asked” are distracting and should be cut.

A writer lives a life, then takes snippets of it and translates it onto pages to represent the human experience in a […]
