Click clack. It was two in the morning. Click Clack. I’m I awake? Click Clack Click Clack. What is that noise? CLICK CLACK CLICK CLACK! What is that smell? (dog whimpers). Oh no. I turn on the lights, and through a foggy head and blury eyes, I see my pup. The guilt on his face would be comical if it were a less horrible situation. It’s everywhere. I mean EVERYWHERE. Suddenly I am Indiana Jones trying to get to the door to let him out. One wrong move and my foot would be violated. It seems like eternity before I am able to let him out. I am sure he is thinking the same thing. Too much adventure, too early in the morning.

Far Forward
C. F. WALLER
Genre: Science Fiction
FREE for a limited time
Awakening on a lazy Saturday morning, Anna Katz is greeted by an older version of herself making a pot of coffee.During the ensuing conversation her doppelganger explains…
“The first rule of time travel is that you can never go backwards.”
While a person is never really ready to have a conversation with their future self, and I can assure you Anna is not, this leads to the obvious question…
“If you can’t go back, how does that explain you standing in my kitchen?”
The answer to that, and to her many other questions, will have to wait.Anna, unknowingly, is about to embark on a journey that will shine a light on many of the key turning points in not only her past, but possibly all things past.
She will not be making this journey alone.Assistance will come in the form of her very own daughter, Etta, who turns up soon after her future self makes her first appearance.Unfortunately, Etta only manages to add to the confusion.Anna Katz has never had a child.
While standing face to face with herself appears at first to be akin to standing in front of a long mirror; she’s about to learn more about herself than she bargained for.Is it possible that inside her own psyche are hidden many different people just waiting to get out?In the end, when she gazes into the looking glass, will it be her own reflection staring back; or something less recognizable?Possibly even terrifying.
“In this novel are offered alternative theories of time travel, causality, random facts about the global positioning system, postulations of a repeating universal timeline, inferences that bathroom habits may have an adverse effect on the attainable speed of light, and the possibility that the demise of the Theropods might not have been without blame.Although, to find the last one you will have to read between the lines with a microscope.
Also included, but much more subjectively, are judgmental opinions on infidelity, workplace etiquette, smoking, taking things that don’t belong to you, parenting do’s and don’ts , and last but not remotely least, the possibility of true love.
Any similarities to real persons or events is unintentional, however given this novels propensity for timeline revision, it’s not completely out of the question.Enjoy!”
