My favourite time of the year - the Open Novella Contest! An opportunity to read some great stories, but more importantly, to participate in a wonderfully supportive Wattpad community.
Welcome to my seventh entry for the ONC!
There are lots of great prompts this year but this one jumped out at me:
No 54. Only when you meet someone you're not supposed to fall in love with –and who knows how to time travel – do you begin to really test your limits.
How could I resist??
When I first decided on this prompt, I did a little research as to the various methods which have been used (in fiction) to facilitate time travel.
I found this helpful list:
#1 Time Machines ·
#2 Speed: time is relative ·
#3 Wormholes ·
#4 Portals ·
#5 It's quantum! ·
#6 It's magic! ·
#7 It's Genetic
#8 Body Exchange
#9 Mind transmission
# 10 Don't bother to explain the mechanics at all!
See if you can spot which I've drawn on for my story.
As usual, I'm planning a sci-fi thriller with a thread of gay romance.
NB I'd like to draw your attention to the fact that I am Australian, which will mean I often use a more British style of grammar and spelling with words such as colour, recognise and favourite. Not wrong, just different :)
