Thursday, September 10, 2026: 7:13 AM: There used to be a time when I’d take my VersaBraille II+ to bed with me, writing term papers and other things for my college classes. I used to write a journal there, too. I haven’t done that kind of thing in years, even though I’ve had laptops for a while. However, as I struggle to pull my head together to sit at my desk and work on my book more this morning, it occurs to me that “sitting at my desk” is the problem. If I could write a term paper in bed, why not work on a book in the same relaxed posture? After all, I do have a K380 keyboard and JBL headset, making it unnecessary to take the entire computer to bed with me, “Right?”

A resident of Newtonian Gardens in New Jersey, he is a witch in the nontraditional sense: an explorer of consciousness, meditation, dreams, intuition, manifestation, and the strange territory where inner experience meets everyday reality. Accepting claims solely on the authority of a teacher, book or tradition isn’t in his DNA. His approach is experimental rather than prescriptive: he tries various techniques, observes what happens, journals, questions, and adjusts his practice accordingly. For him, witchcraft is a conscious practice of working with attention, intention, language, and intuition to explore personal transformation. He writes honestly about that ongoing experiment, sharing successes, failures, doubts, surprises, and unanswered questions here. He does not claim absolute answers as to what an experience means.
