I strive for accuracy.
You will be surprised when you read the Author's Note at the end and find out how many characters were real people!
A few were famous, like Moulay Ismail, Sultan of Morocco. They all led fascinating lives!

My main character is real: Elie (Eileen) Rutherford and her father Ernest were real ( #science nerds know him!). Big and small details are accurate (their personalities, certain quotes, etc.), but I played w Elie's birth year and marriage - and #timetravel !

I tried to make DIVE BEYOND ETERNITY's historical references as accurate as possible. There're many historical figures (and U-boats) from the WWII era in the book.

In MYRIAD, you lose as much life as you #timetravel . Travel 1 week, lose 1 week of life. Travel 20 years.... You get the picture.
The closer I come to my own 7th decade, the less far-fetched the above concept seems to me.
#TimeTravelAuthors 21 Historical research
My Aurigan refugees hide in 16thc. Devon, England. I researched the period and spent a lot of time in the North Devon records office studying old maps, books and the history of the pirates on Lundy Island (who play a part in the action.)

βWhat happened to Dr Gerhard Stromm?β she asked.
βWhat do you mean?β
βWas he trialled like most high-ranking SS officers? Did he run abroad to South America or the US like other Nazi scientists?β

#TimeTravelAuthors D19: Any negative effects of time travel?
Amnesia as well as 'bequeathed memories'.
Basically, you don't know who you are, but you do know (almost) everything about someone else's life. Someone who is no longer around.
So much fun...π

Day 17:
This is the very first thing I 'saw' in SEVENTEEN MINUTES OF RAIN, when I had the silly idea of looking into the future to share the book I will have written.
'Hannah ran, her feet splashing in the rising puddles, but she knew it was too late.'

My time travellers always experience a few seconds of time-travel sickness when they 'land'. This persents itself as dizziness, disorientation, and sometimes vomiting.
#TimeTravelAuthors It better not be. Part of it takes place in a future where the human race has been wiped out by a plague.
Then I pull her through into the historian passageway.
Or I try to.
I walk through but the woman gasps and then--she's gone. My hand is empty and she's gone. #TimeTravelAuthors Day 17

Now comes the difficult bit. We can't follow the wagon through the gate, and we can't walk directly back to a room we haven't yet left.

#TimeTravelAuthors In the Locksmith Trilogy, time travel itself isn't unhealthy, but walking around in the ruins of your hometown and chatting with your friend after you found his grave can really do a number on your mind.

Negative effects of time travel.
There're many negative effects in my book: from physical effects (nausea, dizziness) to phycological (visions, nightmares). Plus, during every 'travel' the characters acquire more & more black matter in their bodies.
