HI I'm here...sorry I haven't been able to think of my question I was going to ask. UGH! I suck!
How did you pick the eras they were in?
Is there a certain reason why you made the age difference in their real time? (Sorry just making up questions)

The 1960's just sort of fell into place when I had Julie jump to a beach. I don't know why but my first thought was Blue Hawaii and well I went from there looking into the movie stuff.
Ancient Rome - it's one of my favorite time periods and I felt it would make a good place for them to be with the whole slave thing being prominent then. Plus, Purpura is latin *eye roll* okay that was cheesy and not a real reason.
Not sure if there is a reason behind the rest, I picked random times and places and looked up what was happening then.
What do you mean by the second one. LOL.

I like fantasy, sci-fi probably because I grew up watching and reading it so my mind gravitates towards those kinds of storylines. I am not great at writing fanfic that doesn't have something unusual about it. Rather than give my characters a disease I throw them through time, for some reason I am more comfortable giving them unusual obsticles to overcome. Plus I like to make things up... and in fantasy/sci fi it's easier, at least for me.
The most challenging is because it's time travel. Keeping all the little details that need to come up again. Things like AJ's first meeting with Julie is AFTER Julie's first meeting with AJ. Keeping that information straight... there are still a few details hanging out there that I hope can get wrapped up in the last few chapters.
The entire storyline is fun to write. I enjoy writing about the different jumps and throwing in the history. They are never really in one particular time long enough for it to really be a storyline of its own.
