Terminal Trajectory
Synopsis/Details:
Put on your thinking cap for this one! “Terminal Trajectory” is a story about time travel technology in its infancy. It seems the greatest of all powers, yet the past remains unchangeable.
And through it all, the leading characters search for what we always do: Love. There's a teen romance, a seniors' romance, and one-and-a-half romances for 30-somethings - yes, you read that right!
Incidentally, a "terminal trajectory" is when someone is sent into the past and stays there. In part, this story shows what happens when they "catch up" to the present!

The Writer: Steve Garry
I wrote my first screenplay in 2008: A "fan fiction" sequel to my favorite film. The exercise served as a release of my pent-up wishes and hopes for what might have "happened next" in that movie.

But somewhere between then and now, I must have felt that writing wasn't a serious or possibly an attainable career. My writing methodology is unique because I use many of the same skills I used for decades as a software programmer. The stories must be both "logical" and "bug free". Oh, and hopefully thought-provoking, entertaining,... Go to bio
