#TimeTravelAuthors 17: Something in common with MC? Jim and I have similar senses of humor - dry, understated, and sarcastic. (It seemed the right approach for a really weird adventure.)

Day 17 #TimeTravelAuthors I feel just a little less socially inept than Rocky. (Though I'm not sure Rocky usually knows when he's being socially inept…!) Books2read.com/TV

#TimeTravelAuthors Mar 17: Common points with character. I've actually written Homura and Dave as aspirational characters for me. I've always wanted Homura's dedication, and Dave's sense of humour despite the horrors. Someday I'll get better at these.

#TimeTravelAuthors Day 17--Something you and a character have in common. Seems off to post this on Irish-centric St.Patrick's Day, but my heritage, like my main character's, is #Scottish!

As anyone who's read both books can guess, Henry in @lyssachiavari.bsky.social's excellent Iamos Trilogy reminds me of Rocky (though Henry was in print first!). But I suppose most fictional computer geniuses fit the bill. It's a trope for a reason! #TimeTravelAuthors books2read.com/TV

#TimeTravelAuthors Day 9 News in your story. In the futuristic setting, the government curates what people can see. It's shown on imagers, which are 3-D displays of information. News in 1400s Scotland was relayed by verbal dissemination. #timetravelromance #futuristicromance #historicalromance

#TimeTravelAuthors 5: 'fury' snippet "He has had a complete medical workup. He is fully healthy in all respects, including those appropriate to a young man." Even through my #fury, I couldn't help but admire the diplomacy of that phrasing. #ScienceFiction #SFF #SciFi #TimeTravel

#TimeTravelAuthors Mar 5: Snippet with anger Dave slouched even further into his jacket. "I think he wanted you to get back your time magic. He seems to think you'd want to restore the universe to the way it was." Homura took a sip of her coffee. It was warm, but her anger burned hotter.

#TimeTravelAuthors 3: #TimeTravel tech? The Time Eye needs a nuke plant to run. It's really only designed to move particles through time - electrons, photons. It's like a camera that happens to reach a narrow slice of the Bronze Age. Turns it can do a little more. Once. #ScienceFiction #BookSky

#TimeTravelAuthors Day 3 Describe your #timetravel technology. The tech is a combination of a time travel transport room and a chip implanted in the traveler's lower brain stem. Yeah, I know. Ew.

#TimeTravelAuthors March 3rd. describe your time travel device. My main character has been genetically engineered to feel the currents of time and travel them via the Chronoslip. The chronoslip breaks into our world through rainbows, such as an oil slick on water, creating entry points.

#TimeTravelAuthors Mar 3: Time travel machine/device. Descriptions of the time travel devices are scattered across my crossover fic, so here's a primer. Starting with Akemi Homura's shield, since that is covered in Madoka Magica. Homura has a shield with gears that control an hourglass. (1/4)

#TimeTravelAuthors A fertile woman from an infertile future (2352) is sent on a mission back to 1400s Scotland to help save humanity. They're sent to the wrong time a week before the mission is set to begin. She soldiers on, knowing she's prepared...for everything except falling in #love.

#TimeTravelAuthors 25: Most competent char? Quite a few characters are competent in their fields. A couple are actual geniuses, though. Dr. Shaheen Kabirii is probably the most competent, creating viral cures for Multiple Sclerosis and many cancers. But she has far greater ambitions than that.

#TimeTravelAuthors Feb 25: Most competent. Depends on what kind of competency. If it's fighting, Homura used time travel to learn how to use multiple types of guns and other ballistic weapons. In other areas... let's just get them all to therapy first since they're all emotional disasters.

I give him every name she's ever used—her married name, her Arabic name, and "Sarah Peterson," the name she used for a few years of grade school. For good #measure, I even have him look me up under "Halim." "I don't see her anywhere," Rocky says. "Or you." #TimeTravelAuthors

#TimeTravelAuthors 19: 'measure' snippet SECONDARY's MC/narrator is a PhD. Of course there are footnotes! Once, even more... --- Oh, footnote-within-a-footnote: They don't measure in terms of 'resistance,' they measure the opposite - how conductive something is. #SciFi #ScienceFiction

#TimeTravelAuthors Day 19 Post-sized snippet--optional word "measure" In her 2352 futuristic world, disease, war, and genetic overmanipulation caused rampant infertility and brought humanity to a dangerous population level. So if you're fertile, you have children young. 1400s Scotland women do too.

#PretendPanel Day 15--What's the role of love in your writing? For my #timetravelromance books and my #paranormalromancebooks, #love is the point. I write romance because the real world doesn't offer enough happy endings, and my readers want to escape into worlds where they do.

#TimeTravelAuthors Day 13 In the world of STATUS GREEN (Maelle & team and Charlotte) there's only one timeline. It can be changed, but there's only one. In Quentin's world of A SWEET DEAL, it's probably the same but I haven't spent enough time there (yet) to figure out the rules.
