TIME TRAVEL, CATS, AND AN OLD MANUSCRIPT
Mystery Scene|Summer #168 2021
Have you ever wished that you could go back in time and change something in your past or visit the future and find out what it has in store for you? Have you questioned what would happen if time travel was available to everyone? Could 9/11 have been prevented? Could the spread of COVID-19 have been eradicated before it ended so many lives?

TIME TRAVEL, CATS, AND AN OLD MANUSCRIPT

My book, Time’s Relative, was originally written in 1998 before the above-mentioned events occurred. While going through my old writing files during the pandemic, I discovered the manuscript that I’d put away 23 years ago. I also located the computer file that was produced in WordPerfect and was able to convert it to the Microsoft Word version that I now use.

Reading over my early work, I decided to revise and update it. As I began this process, I considered using the old material and adding in the new information since the story involved time travel.
