Love Through Time with Augustina Van Hoven

The Write Way Café welcomes Augustina Van Hoven, whose Love through Time series takes readers through time.

Have you ever wanted to time travel? Many books, movies, and television shows have been created about this concept.  It’s one of my favorite genres. Imagine being able to witness historical events or meet famous people. This is something I would love to do.

In the scientific community, there is some argument on whether time travel is possible. The hypothetical theory for it is called an Einstein-Rosen bridge, otherwise known as a wormhole. A wormhole is a shortcut through the space-time continuum. It acts like a tunnel connecting two places in three-dimensional space, the present, and the past or future, with time as the fourth-dimensional element.

In my ‘Love through Time’ series, I explore the idea that there are natural occurring wormholes in time. My heroine in A SECOND CHANCE accidentally falls through one and ends up in 1876. For the second book in the series, I did the reverse and brought two people from 1876 forward to present time.

As difficult as it would be to try to exist in the past, living in primitive conditions without all the conveniences that we are used to, it would be far more difficult for someone from the past to try to survive in the future. Imagine being born before the invention of the radio or automobiles and suddenly finding yourself in 2018? It would be terrifying. You wouldn’t have any concept of modern technology and the things we take for granted like cell phones, microwave ovens, a car, a computer, or even something as simple as indoor plumbing. Another even greater shock would be our culture. There have been so many changes in the last 150 years in our dress and the way we interact with one another, it would be like being dropped in an alien world. These are some of the problems faced by my characters in the second book in the ‘Love through Time’ series, A NEW BEGINNING.

What would you do if you found yourself over 100 years in the future?
