My Books
I have written on a variety of
paranormal topics, including mind-matter interaction, experiential research, place memory, and the afterlife. I currently have three books out (with one in the works) and chapters in two anthologies edited by Michael Thalbourne and Lance Storm. The books are as follows:
- Into the PK Zone:
This was my original dissertation, completed in 1999. It is a phenomenological study on what the experience of performing mind-matter interactions is like for those who do it, including both spontaneous and intentional events.
There are only two
reasons why you might want to struggle through the academic double talk in this
version. First, it can be used by other graduate students as a reference source
for their theses. Second, it contains chart diagrams at the back of many
of the interactions between the constituents of the PK experience. To read a bit more about this book, click here...
- The PK Zone: A Cross-Cultural Guide to Psychokinesis
This book, using a lot of material from my dissertation, tries to create a complete picture of mind-matter interactions. It consists of three sections. The first part looks at stories of PK from cultures around the world since ancient China and Greece on. This includes topics such as levitation, stigmata, inedia, teleportation, bilocation, poltergeist phenomena, fire immunity, luminosity, hemography, deliberate caused bodily damage phenomena, and weather control. Part II reviews the experimental literature beginning with studies of physical mediums and looking at dice and sphere experiments, poltergeist research, random generator research, healing research, metal bending studies, and other work up until about 2000. It then considers what what science has taught us about these phenomena, and discusses training techniques, models, and theory. Finally, Part III of this book looks at the complex, interactive nature of the experience, including how it overlaps with ESP and what inhibits success. To read more about this book, click

- Suicide: What Really Happens in the Afterlife?
Co-written with Jon Klimo (the world's foremost expert on channeling), this book uses an extensive review of channeled messages, hypnotic regression therapy sessions, reincarnation research, dream experiences, near-death experiences and other material to look at really may happen on the other side. It especially focuses on what the dead themselves say about suicide, its consequences, and
their experiences in the afterlife. It considers three types of suicide: traditional suicide, assisted suicide, and suicide-murder (including information on suicide bombers). A Spanish language version of this book was also released on September 11th, 2007 as Suicidio: Que Sucede Realmente en el Otro Lado. To read more about this book, click here...
In the Works:
I have three nonfiction books currently in the works, one about three-quarters done, and the two others recently started but moving fast. They are:
- Mind-Matter Interaction: The Stories, Research, and Theory
This is the long-awaited updated version to The PK Zone. Although the core of the information is same, it has been changed in style, updated to 2007, and expanded to cover new topics. I'm hoping that it will be done some time in 2008. To read more about this book you can click here...
- The Zen of Self-Mastery
This is
an entirely new book...and in some ways a new topic for me. It's not really about the paranormal, although the topics of ESP and precognition will come up. Instead, this book is more about understanding the unconscious mind and how to work with it. I'm really excited about this book! I have a placeholder page for this book here...
- Handbook to the Afterlife
This is a
short book by Jon Klimo and I which we just started. We will talk about the stages fo the afterlife, how everyone can communicate with and help spirits, and contain the full original channeled transcripts referred to in the Suicide book but deleted because of space concerns. Probably out in 2009-2010.
