Seek Wisdom, Practice Kindness - Fourth Edition: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1023441
Seek Wisdom, Practice Kindness is an exposition of my secular philosophy.
Sasha and Samantha Save the World:
https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/350677
Sasha and Samantha are my daughters. This is a novel I promised I'd write for them back when Sasha was four and Samantha was two. I didn't get around finishing it until about eight years later. Then a few years after that I revised it to its current form.
The Earthdead:
https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/896314
This is a very short novel about a new type of zombie that can travel underground, and that gets smarter. Two organizations, the Community of Men, and the Community of Women, have been protecting an unbelieving public from this menace for many years.
Eadgar of the King's Guard:
https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/920656
Eadgar of the King's Guard is my idea of a Western that instead of being set in the Old West of the United States, is set in Anglo-Saxon England during the reign of King Alfred. The Vikings have attacked once again, laying waste to an entire village. Eadgar is prepared to stand up to them, by himself if necessary.
My short stories can also be downloaded for free from BarnesAndNoble.com, the Apple bookstore, and Smashwords.com. They've also been posted in my community, and can be found by searching for "short story" in my news feed.

I actually have one other book: The Magical World of Poetry. It's an anthology of public domain poems. It can be read online at http://magicalworldofpoetry.com/book.htm . If you save the page to your computer, you'll have an html version of the book. If you print the page to a pdf, you'll have a pdf copy. Paper cover and hard cover versions can be purchased from BarnesAndNoble.com: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/magical-world-of-poetry-mark-james-wooding/1100588181?ean=9781078777377
Dr. Drew interviewed Scott Adams recently, and Scott Adams mentioned the absurdity that Republicans went to overthrow the government on Jan 6, but they neglected to bring their guns. On the first or second anniversary of the event, that alleged oversight made the narrative appear absurd to me, so I made a "video" that was supposed to be audio from January 6, captured on a video camera from which the lens cap had not been removed. I'm posting it again just because.
While I was waiting on hold to talk with a human at the IRS, I decided to put some food out for the dogs. I set the full bag of dog food on a chair, and walked away to get the bowls. When I turned around I saw the bag slowly tipping over, spilling much of its contents onto the floor. Fortunately I had help cleaning it up.
The main task for today is to begin revising McGuffey's Fourth Eclectic Reader. It may take a couple of weeks, possibly more. I still have to work at Publix, and next week I start a new job in the memory care unit of a rehab/nursing home facility, and I'll also be working at Publix at least one night.
After that I'll take a look at the double-slit experiment, and see if there is an interpretation that is consistent with my theory of wave physics.
Also, I came across the attached meme, which I had created two or three years (or so) ago. I thought I'd include it because I still like it.
I recently proposed a theory of matter and energy called Wave Physics. In this theory, the only things in the universe are energy and the universal membrane, which is the medium through which all energy is transfered and stored.
Tonight I realized that according to this theory, everyone and everything in the universe are connected to each other at all times. Things that would be impossible according to the standard model of particle physics, are very possible in the universe of wave physics. Psychic transmissions and the power of prayer are physically possible and make sense if the universe works in any way like the theory I proposed.
If you've ever heard the phone ring and felt sure who it was before answering it, and were proven correct, this makes sense in wave physics, but not with particle physics. If you've ever looked intently at someone, and had that person quickly turn and look directly at you (I have), that phenomenon makes sense if all of us are parts of the same vast, ...
I was only scheduled to work three days this week, so I decided to work on a theory I'd been playing around with for fun over the last few years. I'd never been a big fan of the standard model of particle physics, so a few years ago, just for fun, I thought about exploring some alternate ideas, with zero training and zero experiments.
This week I wrapped up a few loose ends, and posted it to a community I created called Wave Physics. Originally I had called it Alternative Physics, but I changed my mind, so the link still has alternativephysics in it, but the community name is Wave Physics. I'd love for people to pay $5.00 a month to tell me how wrong I am.
