So, I'm traveling a lot over Pentecost and will have time on the train. I can't quite decide which project to tackle first.
Whadda you think?
Final check of the translation of #OdysseyToThePromisedLand so that it gets done?
Start translating #TheMindOnFire?
Edit #TimeCurves in which those books will feature?
Or screw it and just read the books of the author I rediscovered on Patreon yesterday?
Hello everyone. I'm back from the almost dead. Follow my advice and avoid getting a throat/stomach infection plus a fall from the stairs combo because you might not like the wonderful things something like that can do to your body. Cool things like feeling so weak that you can't even sign something at the bank, or hallucinate with an "AI filter" =-|
Now, I'm not sure if being back is a good thing…>=)
#TimeTravelAuthors 13: How did you come up with the rules of time travel?
Some I had already made up in my backstory in my teens.
The biggest chunk, however, was based on some personal logic and then a lot of calculations. I wanted a certain situation for Jules to live in, and the rest is based on that.
In the beginning, Jules cares most about Philippa, his lost sister, because she needs him the most.
And tbh, Vera cares most about herself in the beginning, then Nolene, then Barb.
There's a lot of mental pain from losing loved ones. physical pain - the backlash Vera and Jules suffer from whenever they cause a time flip, and then, of course, the issue with Vera’s leg...
I'm so crazy busy these days and unable to keep up with all my beloved hashtags - so please don't be mad if I post a day or two late (or not at all, but I guess that wouldn't be an issue for anyone but me 😅).
I love history. I would love to be able to see these things with my own eyes. Hence, #LifeStages was born.
#JulesNVera wasn't originally meant to be about time travel, but (yes!) this hashtag inspired me. I had an old story from my teens, which I never finished, and I used that one as backstory. Also, I could incorporate little scenes from my historical stories.
And now, there's #TimeCurves and waits for me to edit it 😁
Thanks, @juliebihn !
Vera and her sister Barb find a dead boy by the riverside. But while Barb arranges for police etc., Jules suddenly isn't dead anymore and convinces Vera to help him disappear.
This is the beginning of Vera's own travels to the center of time, to Jules' lost sister Pippa, and to the question that torments both families: What ever happened to their parents?
I always read books right from a lil kid. My Momma read to me and I carried on. I thank my mom for that. I learnt so much from reading and now I got the ambition to write a book of my own.
Shit this bitch taken so long I ain't gonna lie. But I nearly finished the first chapter 🤞🏾 #TimeTravelAuthors#authors
Catch up on the adventure so far in "Something Fishy in Tu-na" a lovely but absurd Mastodon authors D&D style role-play fantasy... Hmm... Thing.. with zero editing Happening in #MagicMageMadness written by myself and the delightfully strange @strangeseawolf

#WordWeavers Apr 26: In your story, who's hiding (literally or metaphorically)?
Rebecca Sayles' daughter Lucy (or possibly Lisa, Linda, Lara, Lori, Lily, etc.) is currently-ish residing at undisclosed space-time coordinates. This is confounded by the fact that Ms. Sayles doesn't actually have a daughter.
It's that time of month again, #TimeTravelAuthors, and I'm once again asking for you to look over next month's proposed prompts. (Thanks so much for answering prompt questions so faithfully!)
It's extremely important to me, not only for this story, but my historical novels especially. I try to be as accurate as possible, and whenever I twist history a little or expand it, I explain this in the afterword.
I can't rule out that I'm making mistakes, given that I'm no expert, but I try not to.
If you ever read a book of mine and come across a mistake, please let me know.
I tried to make Titanic Voyage as historially accurate as possible. Clara encounters lookouts Lee and Fleet, as well as a poor doomed steward named Gilbert, who if I recall could have been one of two men. There are references to Dorothy Gibson, Bruce Ismay, Wallace Hartley, Thomas Andrews, and Captain Smith.
That said, I hate the idea of portraying a real person inaccurately, so my characters don't interact much with real people.
