Ground control to Major Tom:
Hi, My name is Jeannie. I was born in Milton, Ma. but have spent most of my life in California.  I have always enjoyed writing and did a lot of it when I was young, but only for friends and family.  Recently, I was encouraged by some friends to write this story I had ruminating in my mind for some time and to upload it to Wattpad.  
Now I have 4 stories based on the BBC's Robin Hood series.  Being an ardent admirer of Richard Armitage and being a bit perturbed over the way the show ended, (Robin dies as does my muse, Guy of Gisborne) I decided to write a different ending to the story.  
My love of Science Fiction and time travel in particular led me to write what I call 'Robin Hood meets the ScyFy channel' episodes.  
The heroine, Aylaina MacLeod (of the clan MacLeod for all you Highlander fans, ha ha) travels back in time to the 12th century where she meets none other than Robin Hood and Guy of Gisborne on their way back from being chased by Guy's sister's (the sheriff) mercenaries.  As it turns out, Aylaina has an ancestor from that time period who knew both these men in their youth.  What'd'ya know! 
Aylaina doesn't like the way the story ends, so she takes matters into her own hands and changes history.  Well anybody who knows anything about time travel knows that you don't go round messin' with the Space-Time continuum!  But, alas!  That is what Aylaina does.
These stories take you on a journey through space and time and in my 3rd story..... THE FUTURE...fiuture.....future. *echos. The third story is is a mash-up of Robin Hood and a fun Scifi show, Firefly. I recently discovered Firefly when the Science channel aired it as a way to inform people about how science fiction has influenced the production of  many of the modern conviences and gadgets that we use today.   Firefly originally aired on the Fox network in the early 2000's. You can watch it on Netflix. 
All stories completed.
Feel free to roam about the cabin.
