Julie BihnDay 11 <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TimeTravelAuthors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeTravelAuthors</a> (Prompts in profile!)Going back in time to prevent a tragedy? Spoiler alert for Titanic Voyage, but yes, in their attempts to save Clara from the Titanic, Liam and Rocky do at one point try to save the whole ship. I wonder what would happen if they managed it... 🤔

Ray Ingles<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/TimeTravelAuthors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeTravelAuthors</a> 11: If given the opportunity, would your characters change history to stop a tragedy?Jim would absolutely *love* to go back and stop the inventor of the Time Eye from altering millennia of history. Except she changed things *so* far back, that past doesn't *exist* to change, anymore.<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/TimeTravel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeTravel</a> is confusing.<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/SciFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SciFi</a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScienceFiction</a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SFF</a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/IndieAuthor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IndieAuthor</a>

Especially for such a young age. If he can’t find a way to release that anger, it will destroy him.” She looks at me seriously. “Anger is poison, Nadin,” she says, “of a particularly insidious sort. It eats away at you slowly. If you let it fester inside you, it will destroy you.”

Her and Angel’s eyes locked, before she turned and went back in. Angel released her lip with a pop, pulled out Philippa’s note and scanned it again.<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/JulesNVera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JulesNVera</a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/TimeCurves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeCurves</a>

Whenever Jules and Vera do something that would affect their very existence, it simply returns to the point where all was still ok.With consequences for our poor time travelers 😈<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/JulesNVera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JulesNVera</a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/TimeCurves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeCurves</a>

Any wrong move, any step we take without tons of planning in advance, could lead to someone I care about getting killed.”

Julie BihnAll I have is from author notes at the end: "Every other passenger and crew member named in this novel can be found in various records of the Titanic, though I took a possible <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/liberty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#liberty</a> in spelling Helen Bishop's dog's name as 'Frou-Frou' instead of 'Freu Freu.'" <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TimeTravelAuthors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeTravelAuthors</a> (Prompts in profile!)

RS, Author, Novelist, Prosaist<a href="https://mastodon.social/@jeanmauel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@jeanmauel</a> I would like to be the first to welcome you to the writing community here. There is no algorithm like on X/Twitter and other services to generate a timeline of posts (called toots) on Mastodon. To do this you follow people that interest you, which you did for me so you've got this. We also follow keyword hashtags like <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritingCommunity</a> and include those hashtags in our posts when they apply. Including the following hashtags and the accounts allow you to be found by like-minded people. If you don't include them, you won't be noticed. Much. You do have a recognizable name… There are also hashtag writer challenge games, where like-minded authors reply and discuss author-y things. It is both a good way to procrastinate (as if we need that), but also an opportunity to think about current characters and techniques and read what other authors think about the subject. Here are some incomplete lists to get you started. These identify your community.<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/WritersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookstodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Writing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SF</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/scifi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#scifi</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScienceFiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fantasy</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mystery</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Romance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Romance</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Thriller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Thriller</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/horror" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#horror</a> Games:<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/WritersCoffeeClub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritersCoffeeClub</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/ScibesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScibesAndMakers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/WordWeavers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WordWeavers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/TimeTravelAuthors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeTravelAuthors</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/EngenderedWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EngenderedWriting</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Writever" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Writever</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Writephant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Writephant</a> There's more, but if you check these out, you'll quickly be surrounded by the like-minded. Also, since I follow a multitude of authors, but also artists and creative people, you are welcome to raid my follow list on my profile page for other accounts to follow. Last, please take a moment to fill in your profile page. I do admit your name and banner picture is a great intro, but it's a good place to note what you love to talk about, what you would rather talk about, and it may not just be about writing and publishing. Today is good time to do that. (I guess RS is a little pushy.) Again, you are welcome to look at my profile page (and others) for ideas. If you provide links anywhere on Mastodon, but definitely when building your profile page, include the full http version of the link. If you do, it becomes clickable. Of note in regard to profiles, you can pin things like a longer introduction post or an essay you wish to share, so it is the first post visitors see. It's one of the features and actions hidden in the three dots menu (…) at the end of a post. Again, welcome. Feel free to ask questions. If you use community hashtags, others might answer also.<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a>

Quasi<a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/TimeTravelAuthors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeTravelAuthors</a> 27: Time periods you enjoy writing about?I am not one for settings, my stories are almost always about the interactions. Meaning what I enjoy is looking 4 months, 4 years, 40 years down the road (or back into the past!) from wherever I start. My short stories demonstrate this.Also, where I start tends to be the present, give or take 10 years. Because I dislike world building and hate doing lots of historical/predictive research.I suspect this is a niche audience.
