The Dayton Prairie
Only remnants remain, mostly re-created in the local parks. As fall ushers in the end of the year, things are still blooming, still storing nutrients against the bleak winter. This was a perfect day to go walk through the tall grasses and feel the caress of the ceaseless wind. I took the First Reader…

Ready to Time Travel?
A new mathematical model purports to show that time travel without paradox is possible. As a writer, I’m looking at the article thinking… just how many ways could this go wrong? “The range of mathematical processes we discovered show that time travel with free will is logically possible in our universe without any paradox.”

Look into History: Popular Mechanics
When they didn’t know that’s what it was. Thanks to a tip from Bustedknuckles, in a post about something else, I discovered that the entire back catalog of Popular Mechanics, back to January 1905, were available online. This is… I have no idea what I’ll use it for. But it’s entertaining just to read…

Early Cell Division: Art
Sometimes I find things deep in the fractal universes that set my mind wandering down other paths. Like this one, which made me think about the patterns of early cell division in a developing embryo. I started to think about deuterostomes, and cell spirals, and the membranes that both divide and bind cell walls…

Story Seeds of Science
I am always interested in what’s going on in the world, but I try to look at it through a different lens. One of those lenses is the scientific news, and when I’m looking at it, I’m often looking at it from the point of view of an author. I find it fertile ground…

School at Home
This isn’t going to be a long post, it’s a quick intro to a topic I’ll be blogging on at least once a week going forward. The Little Man is 15 now, and a sophomore, and would like me to let you know that he’s being homeschooled. I talked to him at the beginning…

Honest to Pete
I’m alive. I think. Anyway, it feels like it. The pulled back muscle is starting to ease up. Which makes sitting at the desk easier, but I’ve been inundated with stuff to do… Did I mention we are homeschooling the Little Man for his sophmore year? Yes. That’s… an adventure. He’s enthusiastic about it,…

Love and Petnames
I let the dog in from the back porch, and told her with all affection that she is a filthy animal. Which she is. Earlier this year she began a long project of excavating an impressive wallow in my back flower garden (coffweedbedcoff) and she had been rolling in the dust. I then carried…

I’ve Cracked up and there are Chickens Involved
So a while back an author whose social media presence often involves various critters from her farm (which I hugely enjoy) threw out an idea. Quarantine is boring. Life is stressful. We should do something. Being authors, she proposed we write. With chickens. And humor. I was all in. What came out of that…
