Blurb
A hot summer day, a group of bored teenagers, and a time
machine that runs on pure bull turns out to be the recipe for a disastrous trip
past the future. If by “disastrous trip”, you mean “Adventure!”
Memories
before reading
I wrote this story while I was testing a voice recognition
software, but when the software turned out to be horrible, I transcribed it
myself. Once I’d left out all the ums and ers, and cleaned up a few sentences
that got lost in the rambles, it was surprisingly clean. I only remember adding
in one paragraph, in re: the ‘time travel spindle’, because I’m bad at
describing machinery impromptu. So, if you want to read how I talk when I’m
just bullsh*tting my way through a story, here’s your chance...and mine!
Review
after reading
I like how the 16-year-old protagonist and first-person
viewpoint character is actually writing the story, and how I added a lot of
little ‘writer-touches’ in to reflect his character voice. There’s some good
stuff in here, and this counts as YA. One part suffers from a mild case of
Info-Dump fever, though. Sorry about that. All in all, though, it’s a solid
character-based story, and that’s Science Fantasy Romance.
