#TimeTravelAuthors Apr 13: How do you keep time travel from being confusing?

Anything that puts effects before causes is *inherently* confusing to humans. (If you're not putting effects before causes, you're not writing #TimeTravel.)

So picking rules, and following them, is critical. They don't have to be clear at the start, but by the end they should be revealed and everything must have been consistent with them.

(Tiny exception for stories *about* how bizarre the idea is. 😁)

Finished watching Time Cut (2024) 🎬 on Netflix. It won't be for everyone and I understand that but its completely my kind of cheesy horror movie. I love those slasher movies which hybrid with sci-fi/Back To The Future to make something different. They're always a throwback to a cool soundtrack. Its just a fun watch. This one is great for those who don't like gore either. #movies #horrormovies #scifi #slasher #timetravel youtube.com/watch?v=a8F6yN56zB

#WordWeavers Apr 12: MC POV: Name 3 dangers that exist in your world. How do you protect yourself from them?

Well, in this timeline... there's police, sanitarium guards - and women in general.

I'll let you know if I figure out how to protect myself from *any* of them. 😞

#NowWatching Time Cut (2024) 🎬 I'm not claiming movies like this to be cinematic excellence but I just think they're fun with great throwback soundtracks. If you like slasher movies mixed with time travel then this will probably be your thing. I like what Netflix do with this formula. #movies #horrormovies #slasher #scifi #timetravel

Imagine meeting a time traveller for a few minutes. As they are leaving, you get a glimpse of the destination set in her time machine - it is the very moment she arrived.

Where did she come from?

What do you think? I played with this idea in a new blog post.

Futurist Jim Carroll

"Be a time traveller. Manage today's crisis. But strategize for tomorrow." - Futurist Jim Carroll

Downturns are not just economic events. They are stress tests for leadership.

When pressure builds, plans unravel. Priorities scatter. Noise takes over. People panic. That’s when some leaders retreat—shrinking their vision, delaying decisions, or hoping someone else will take the next step. But others stay grounded. They hold the line—for their teams, their strategy, and their purpose.

This is real resilience. Not slogans. Not survival But the ability to move across time—anchoring the present, while building for the future.

You have to be a time traveller: respond to the moment, while keeping your eyes locked on what comes next. Resilient leaders don’t just manage the current crisis —they hold it together until the future arrives.

Here’s what the data shows from past downturns:

- the most resilient organizations didn’t retreat into reactive cycles.
- they didn’t discard their long-term vision under short-term fear.
- they remained disciplined on costs and intentional on growth.
- they protected their people, their customers, and their momentum—not just their margins.

The fact is, while they managed the crisis in real time, they never lost sight of the bigger arc.

- they thought across multiple time horizons at once:
- they actively manage today.
- all while preparing for tomorrow.
- and positioning for the rebound that always comes.

They didn’t flinch. But they didn’t charge blindly either. They led with calm, communicated with transparency, and made decisions that reflected long-term confidence — not panic.

That’s the essence of future-ready leadership.

So as the pressure rises, the question is simple: Are you retreating—or reinforcing? Are you in one time zone or several?

Because the leaders who shape what’s next aren’t the ones with the boldest slogans. They’re the ones who stay clear, steady, and focused—while keeping one foot in the future.

Be a time traveller.

Manage the crisis.

But never stop building what’s next.

I'm reading a superb new novel (Dream Hotel, by Laila Lalami) set in a nightmarish dystopian near future in which people are seized and detained based on the supposed likelihood of their FUTURE crimes.

And now this ...

#WordWeavers Apr 9: What's the most prevalent form of communication in your world besides talking face-to-face?

There are telephones and such in the new timeline. Analog, not digital... but they've had neural networks quite a bit longer than our world has. While something like Facetime is beyond their (commercial) state-of-the-art, voice commands and such are varied and reliable. And difficult to spam.

#WordWeavers Apr 7: Does your MC have a secret? Can you give us a hint?

He has any number of things he'd rather not bring up about our history. Especially the exact degree to which women were subject to abuse in many cultures.

Then there are are things he wants to keep secret about himself. Like how utterly terrified he is - all the time. (Not that it isn't justified.) Others would be spoilers.

So @steggy has a good explanation of why this is the dumbest timeline. All these civilisations who have invented time travel know it is terrible. It’s notorious. They keep trying to come back and fix things. And they keep mucking with things and making it worse. Maybe it’s not actually our fault.
