THE FIELD by Tracy Richardson
The title of
my novel, The Field, has two meanings. The soccer field and The
Universal Energy Field. Nikola Tesla postulated in the last century that there
is enough energy in a cubic inch of space anywhere in the Universe to power New
York City for a day. This field is also called the ‘Zero Point Field’. We know
that the air around us is filled with energy waves or forces. Magnetic, sound,
light, radio, television, microwave, radiation, etcetera. Most of these waves
are outside the realm of human perception. However, we can measure them, and we
know that animals can hear sounds that are imperceptible to the human ear, and
we benefit from the action of these waves when we watch TV, use our cell phones
or microwave our dinner.
Imagine if
we could access the Zero Point Field as a totally clean, renewable energy
source. No more drilling for oil or natural gas or mining for coal. No more
burning fossil fuels and the resulting air pollution. No need for nuclear power
and radioactive waste. I’m a science geek and a passionate environmentalist. The
Field includes an environmental theme comparing so-called ‘clean coal’ to
wind and solar power and the idea of accessing energy from The Universal Energy
Field.
When he
sleeps, Eric dreams of a world screaming in the midst of devastating
explosions. These dreams terrify him, and as more strange happenings unfold
around him, he’s unable to shake the feeling that what he’s seeing isn’t just a
dream.
When a new
student, Renee, appears in his science class, he could swear he’s known her
forever. But how could that be? As they get to know each other, he meets her
father, who explains the experiments he’s been conducting involving “the
Universal Energy Field” and “Collective Consciousness”—two things Eric has
never heard of before. They seem to be tied to the idea that we are all
connected by the same energy and are all more powerful than we realize. Eric
begins to learn more about these groundbreaking concepts—but can they be real?
Quantum
physics has shown that at a subatomic level, once particles are connected, they
are always entangled no matter how far the distance between them. Einstein
called it ‘spooky action at a distance’. In The Field, I wanted to show
that we are also connected at a human level through the field of consciousness.
Eric has a pronounced ability to connect, but I believe it is something we all
have. We are all connected.
As his life continues to shift and his knowledge of the
Field increases, Eric will be tested beyond anything he’s experienced before.
He must decide whether he believes in that part of himself which ties him to
the world around him, and he must access it—or lose everything he’s been
working to keep.

Tracy wasn’t always a
writer, but she was always a reader. Her favorite book growing up was A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle.
In a weird way her life reflects the book through odd synchronicities. She has
a degree in Biology like Mrs. Murry and without realizing it she named her
children Alex and Katie after Meg’s parents. (Really, it was not intentional,
because that would be weird)! Tracy uses her science background in her writing
through her emphasis on environment issues and metaphysics. Tracy lives in
Indianapolis.
