    Another question from a sci-fi writer

    Thank you all for answering, it really helps out! And don't worry OAQfirst, the lighting solution has been addressed. The light bulb was there just to give you guys the opportunity to say something like: he can take the electricity from the light bulb and follow it backwards along the electron...

    Another question from a sci-fi writer

    Your teleportation idea is good Lurch but, to keep things simple, I'm avoiding it like the plague (also, I really don't want this novel to have anything in common with the movie 'Jumper'). So far the hero can 'levitate' objects and bring them to him, and eventually, he'll be able to teleport...

    Quantum Questions from a Sci Fi writer

    I am humbled by all the help that everyone is providing. Thank you so much. I have already learned so much... Wow... Please keep it up. The sad part is, for me at least, that now I have to rewrite about 50% of two 200000 word novels. But, for me, it is a labour of love. My goal is to create a...

    Quantum Questions from a Sci Fi writer

    I can't get this out of my head... Is this quote yours? If so, it is one of the best constructed, and deeply, fundamentally important, series of words regarding sci-fi that I have ever read, anywhere, written by anyone. If so, may I please use it as a blurb (compressed information packet), in...

    Quantum Questions from a Sci Fi writer

    Wow, that Lisa Randall is quite something. I'm almost finished her book and, wow, that's some real good stuff. Generally speaking, is this a book that is respected by other experts in that field? And, if someone here could find me a flippant (imagine a surly drunk physicist listening to dylan in...

    Hello, My name is Alistair Maxwel. I’m a science-fiction writer in need of some help. As you are all aware, now a days science-fiction writers use quantum physics to explain everything from near death experiences to global consciousness. I endeavor and strive for more precision. I...
