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!
If you'd like to view this story, I look forward to sending it to you. (Also available as Pilot + Episode One)

In addition, with a decade of pitching behind me and being read hundreds of times, I may have connections to enhance the resources that you have available. Don't hesitate to approach me with this in mind. Flexibility, creativity and unconventional collaborations are... Go to bio
