Armageddon

The Journey of PLANET:

PLANET is going to be a difficult journey for this writer. Perhaps this is why I have put it off for some time, because Armageddon is a hard topic for humans to face. With an ice comet from the Kuiper belt, directly inline to destroy Earth, all human inhabitants have been told they have to vacate Earth by their World government. The need has unleashed von Neumann probes, those self-replicating robots that are “seeding” the galaxy with terraform, which is, changing the new chosen planet’s surface and climate to be like Earths.

Logistic questions have arisen:

How will all the billions of Earth’s inhabitants leave? Could they go in digital data streams? Or on ships?

Is the Kardashev scale for categorizing civilizations a good choice? A three level advancement or a five level advancement?

Okay, I admit, that’s a very interesting part to be thinking about, and one I truly relish. I hope you will find a little time to follow me on this journey as I report back what I learn and how it all unfolds. I will mainly discuss the scientific and philosophical questions that arise for me, rather than excerpts from the actual book.

Finished for now

Finished the first draft of The Time Key one hour before my editor, the great Judy Griffith Gill, sent me Forever Woman for editing. (No time to be sad about finishing The Time Key and that is good timing!) The editing work has now been done on Forever Woman and I will place my efforts for the next number of days into polishing the third book in the Forever Series, Forever Clan.

I will now blog about the journey of writing the Forever Series and then continue with PLANET.

Thanks for reading!

Nearing Completion

74, 245 words.

As the first draft of The Time Key nears completion I feel somewhat sad that my characters are finishing their journey that I had the privilege to go on and document for them. If only it could go on forever. . .

Meet you on the other side

The two hero’s are now approaching the wormhole with extreme apprehension as they have no idea what awaits them on the other side.

I had an epiphany: My multi-universe story should have multiple endings. (Explains why I saw so many ways to go.) I am deeply thrilled about this development as I get to spend extra time telling this never ending story!

Falling Down a Wormhole and Dopplegangers

Time travel to the past has created a doppelganger in our story!

Justin Kennedy meets himself, we'll call him JJ. JJ is in far better shape that Justin as he has not under gone the tragedies that have befallen his older self.

Ah, Justin has just met up again with his wife, Angela, who is pregnant and will die in a plane crash in a few short weeks if he cannot stop it from happening. He is unwilling to worry her so he states that he came "back to the past" to share medical advances that will help everyone. Stay tuned, the characters are now in charge once more.

The split-in-time scenario has not occurred as yet as nothing had really changed the past yet, just effected it. But when, (or if) the past is changed, things will become problematic for everyone.
