What happens when a lifelong curiosity about computers meets the remarkable new world of artificial intelligence?

In Rockin' Chair Reflections, Sharlene Thomas invites readers to sit beside her and explore AI with calm curiosity rather than fear. Through thoughtful conversations with her AI assistant, “Socrates,” she discovers that artificial intelligence is not a mind of its own, but a powerful mirror that helps us organize our thoughts, clarify our questions, and better understand ourselves.

This book is not about predicting the future or glorifying technology. It is a gentle, grounded exploration of what AI is, what it is not, and how our questions, and our humanity, remain at the heart of every conversation.

Warm, reflective, and reassuring, this is a book for anyone who wants to approach artificial intelligence with wonder, wisdom, and an open mind.

In a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, how do we recognize the subtle difference between genuine intuitive insight and the friction created by our own hopes, fears, and assumptions?

Fact or Friction is a thoughtful and practical exploration of intuitive reading and the deeply human qualities that remain essential to meaningful spiritual guidance. Drawing on years of experience, Sharlene Thomas examines how intuition works, where personal bias can interfere, and why discernment, compassion, and honesty are more important than ever.

This book offers a calm and grounded perspective for readers who wish to strengthen their intuitive abilities, deepen their trust in their own perceptions, and better understand the delicate balance between authentic insight and interpretation.

Whether you are new to intuitive work or have practiced for years, Fact or Friction invites you to approach your impressions with clarity, humility, and an open heart.
