"And if I'm late to work again, I'll get sacked." "You don't look strong enough to play football." Rocky makes a face at me. "Melia nearly fired me for my tardiness!" --Titanic Voyage www.kobo.com/search?query... #TimeTravelAuthors

Eh close enough #HistorytownAZ #Novmemeber

I need to branch out (and have some in the works) but my natural inclination and early stories are very much: “Sweet & kind people meeting and being sweet & kind to each other.” 😅 Tho I’m having fun with “Nice Leader” & “Their Feral Friend Who Will Gut You If You Disappoint Nice Leader.” #Lovember

I guess I like The Nerd/Genius Sidekick + The Hero best! The Nerd + The Innocent is also nice. But most of my characters are several archetypes. Liam is also The Lover, The Protector, maybe half of The Star-Crossed Lovers... www.everywritersresource.com/50-common-ch... #Lovember #HistorytownAZ

OK but this literally happens in my WIP sequel sooooo #HistorytownAZ #Novmemeber

By one person’s demand: One of the perks of working at CYO-P is that you get to make your own meal once per shift. And employees can get creative. …When money’s tight, like today, I make mine double-sized, with one pizza crust as the top and another as the bottom. #TimeTravelAuthors

It's common in romance stories, but Liam thought he'd never fall for someone who might also be interested in loving him romantically. (I'd actually say Clara has the same issue, amplified, though she maybe has a more specific reason behind it...) #Lovember #HistorytownAZ

I almost never wear makeup (mainly for costuming) but with coupons and ExtraBucks, CVS in effect…paid me to buy makeup? I’m normally pleased at deals, but it kind of feels like they said, “Hey, you. You need this SO BADLY, it’s on the house.”

The thought of sharing a #meal with you makes me smile. "But wouldn't that take a lot of props?" "'Props' is my middle name." "Your middle name is—" "Don't say it!" --Titanic Voyage www.barnesandnoble.com/w/titanic-vo... #TimeTravelAuthors

I write no villains, but I guess some people say the iceberg did nothing wrong? 😬 Actually I guess the existing timeline is a villain, so you can argue it’s good that laws required more lifeboats after the Titanic sank and the US started an iceberg watch… #Novmemeber #HistorytownAZ

Writing IS cathartic! That's it. That's the post! #WriteStuff

Most of my stuff takes a turn 😅 I think Titanic Voyage surprised me the most because as I wrote it, it helped me work through stuff that happened after I started writing (like I had no idea my own father would die during the writing and writing process!). #WriteStuff #HistorytownAZ

I’d argue every time I did NaNoWriMo, it was 30 days of stream of consciousness 🥴 (My last project was trying to get 50k words for the 🍕story, actually. I was desperate for words so I absolutely resorted to a “and it was only a dream” when a story did not work.) #WriteStuff

I was desperate for ideas and resorted to one of those old title (?) generators that strings words together. Something about a magic sandwich, but such a book already exists. But there are also pizza shops that let you choose toppings like sub shops…also, pizza is inherently funny. #WriteStuff

I have answers! Hot: Does it always stay hot? (Not exactly) Cheesy: Literal or figurative? (…both?) Spicy: Literal or figurative? (LITERAL ONLY THE BOOK IS NOT SPICY) Pepperoni-y: 🤤 Mysterious: How does it work? (🤷🏻‍♀️) Magical: See mysterious, but also what would you do with one? #WriteStuff

A time traveling calzone actually 😅 (And I did, but I’m sloooooowly working on more stories to compile info an episodic novel) #WriteStuff

Oh neat! I’m Julie, author of Titanic Voyage, working on the sequel, Immigrants’ Journey! Time travel X angst X romance! #WriteStuff

I always struggle to think of these on the spot! Potential spoilers for Immigrants' Journey, talking about a drone: "And the fan blades make it fly?" Rocky nodded. "Is that why your shirt says 'Wingman?'" He laughed. "Sure." #HistorytownAZ #Novmemeber

If you have to ask how sentient the basement is, you probably don't want to know the answer 😂

I want to say Liam is the character who loves most deeply. He visits his ailing father as often as possible and falls in love quickly and hard. On the other hand, you could argue that Clara is the embodiment of love. She loves EVERYONE, though, so it might not go as deep. #HistorytownAZ #Lovember

Going forward in time? They'd probably do standard investment shenanigans. Ugh. Though Liam would be interested in seeing if they save Clara, if he gets a new job someday… Clara would be fascinated to see how the world's changed! (The technology and the diversity, at least.) #TimeTravelAuthors

I feel like it’s hardly spoilers to say this meme reflects my primary MC 😅 (Actually, it can apply to Titanic Voyage, too.) #HistorytownAZ #Novmemeber

Arizona and Hawaii welcome the rest of the country back to standard time.

I'll be talking about Immigrants' Journey, the sequel to Titanic Voyage. The primary storyline is about--oops spoilers never mind--but the secondary one, Clara's sister, a Titanic survivor, mourns but ultimately learns that her heart will go on. #Novmemeber #HistorytownAZ

(Mild spoilers for Titanic Voyage) I'd say the alternate universe Rocky needs love the most 😬 Other than that, I think my characters receive the appropriate amount of love. Readers tend to think Sahar should show more love to her brother, Liam, but she's not a warm person. #HistorytownAZ #Lovember

What surprised you in the data? I thought kids in general did not like coconut or nuts*, so the fact that so many Almond Joys were distributed surprised me. *Even if kids DO actually like coconut and nuts, if adults think they don't, I still wouldn’t expect to see so many being distributed.

This is how I’m gonna look every time someone hits the dislike button one of my posts.

Enjoy the time travel tonight, folks who live where the time changes! Ironically(?), I live in Arizona, so time doesn't change here. (Unless I write it myself!) #TimeTravelAuthors

I loooooove polishing my work. Of course I love the feeling when you read it and you're like "This is perfect" or you find you're changing words and then the next time change them back (which means you're largely done). But that moment when you make something greater or execute a fix? FUN! #Lovember

If you want to build a feed on Bluesky, you can use skyfeed.app When Bluesky has hashtag glitches, which has happened to me at least twice in 30 days, custom feeds seem to pick up all the posts. (Example: bsky.app/profile/did:... for #TimeTravelAuthors)

Are there hashtag issues again? I’m not seeing the latest posts under #TimeTravelAuthors (or posts I made on other tags). The feed still seems to work, though! Bookmark it or check my profile! bsky.app/profile/did:...

I’m Julie and I write about it all day long but it’s a little different from the last one so I’m gonna say it was pretty cool and I’m gonna go back and get some of the other ones for you to get some more for your own sake lol This is not the worst description of my WIP sequel. 🤔 #Novmemeber

Liam is sure he killed his adoptive mother. She officially died of pneumonia, but he thinks he got her sick. Poor guy is a little bundle of guilt. (Though there’s a bit of a throwaway moment where through time travel, it seems it’s not his fault after all!) #AwesomeCharacters

Leverage, you say? 👀

An amusement park employee at a Titanic ride falls in love with a heroic, doomed passenger. Liam would do anything to save Clara… Thank goodness (or maybe thank Rocky!) for time travel! #TimeTravelAuthors

My favorite convention!

happy halloween! skeletons are inside us right now

Fun fact. The author's working on a sequel to Titanic Voyage. If she wrote a Book 3, it would star ME! But she can only write it if Titanic Voyage sells a ton. Buy Titanic Voyage! But she might treat me bad in Book 3. Maybe don't buy Titanic Voyage? --Rocky #TimeTravelAuthors books2read.com/TV

Spending time and effort writing and publishing when the world is ::gestures wildly:: and readers are struggling to afford food and health care, let alone books, strikes me as an act of reckless optimism. Or maybe just incredible tenacity.

Very nice! If only I wrote villains 😅 but I love the idea of more every-other-day hashtag games!
