I hate talking about myself. Pages like these are where you are supposed to promote yourself and your works. To me it all smacks of hubris. But since I'm here I'll talk a little about myself, and my books. I'm old. I'm tired. I'm retired. So I have some time to get back into my love for books. After 50 years staring mainly at computer screens (remember the days when your only options were a white, green or amber screen and there was no such thing as an image file?) I found it weird to read words on a page, but my love returned quickly. Now I've started writing too, of course on a computer screen, ebooks that are to be read on a computer screen. I'll get around to publishing them in hard and soft copy, but only if I get an audience for the ebooks. Back in 2006 I set down to write a self help book about being confident. I don't know what possessed me to think I could write such a book, but I tried. Before I could get the first paragraph finished other people, fictional people, pushed me to writing a completely different story. So I switched gears and started writing fiction. I created two characters, an older gentleman and an older lady who were speaking about the good old days and wouldn't it be fun to go back and relive some of that. These characters were typical American white people, but as soon as the woman began to speak I realized that she was a 15 year old Japanese girl, from over 100 years in the future, and not even on this planet but in an afterlife after an apocalyptic demise of planet Earth. Oh well, if that's the direction the story goes I'll just follow along, typing as we go. It's amazing how fictional characters that you totally made up suddenly take on a life of their own and start talking about things you never heard of before. Imagination is a fantasmical thing creating creatures from Micky Mouse to Harry Potter that we get to know, and love, and become just as much a part of our life as the solid ones we live with.

A Few Random Excerpts |
|
All existence in form, everywhere, at every level, in every domain, are harmonic vibrations of the same fundamental field of existence. Vibrations, in the proper harmony is music. In other words all form is made from music, all existence in form is a song. To have the same form we sing the same song. So here, in order to propagate we simply sing a song with another in harmony, and the interaction between our two songs, the interference patterns that creates, coalesce into a new song, which is our child.

| I know it's a problem. It takes practice. It's why Earth people have forgotten how to use telepathy. Many thousands of years ago when Earth people were telepathic it got out of control. Endless thoughts of fear, jealousy, hatred and an obsession with sex infected the collective mind. It got so bad that you guys just filtered it all out, and then forgot how to use it. It's time to start using it again, though, and night school will help. We had to learn the hard way too which is why we had to limit our emotions, our jealousy, and respect the private thoughts of others. It takes practice. Helana explains.

If you follow the path to ruler-ship, and the conflicts which will result from that pursuit, I can be of no use to you for you will be crushed, not by Sally or the Network or any other perceived threat, but rather by the crushing hand of history herself, who I believe is already beyond patience with that sort of childish nonsense. Rather than you asking me to support you I turn the question around. Will you support me? Can we support and encourage each other? I hope the answer to this last question is yes. Pat pushes his microphone away and waits for the Councils response. For The Love Of Artificial Intelligence | A New Earth | BOOK TWOArtificial Intelligence Saves The World By Destroying It.
| We have to do what we have always done. John says. Our best bet is always to tackle our problems on our home turf where we know the lay of the land and can hit them where it counts. We have to just get on with it. If we wait for perfection, then we wait forever. We can't let the perfect stand in the way of the good. We have done a good job getting this far. Just because our goal is somewhere over the horizon where it can't be seen is no reason to sit down and cry. We just keep going like we have always kept going, one foot in front of the other, moving on down the road. Maybe the perfection everyone is looking for is just a goal. Life isn't about reaching the goal. Life is about walking down that long crooked road in search of it.
