About the author
I have spent nearly seventy years writing a suitable sequel to H.G. Wells's THE TIME MACHINE. Since my first reading at the age of twelve, I came away wanting to know so much more. Did Weena survive the fire? How did the Eloi-Morlock arrangement come to be? Also, there were modern discoveries following the book's publication that destroyed some of the author's assumptions. The most prominent was that the Eloi-Morlock class structure was an extension of the nineteenth-century upper-working class arrangement. In 800,000 years, twenty or thirty civilizations would have risen and fallen.
After spending a career in the Navy, I returned to my sequel project with a set of fresh, adult eyes. I soon understood a single book would not cover the whole story. COME FIND ME is the first and only published volume in which Weena survives the forest fire and tells her story. WHERE I BELONG documents the rebuild of the Eloi and Morlock world. TOGETHER IN TIME completes Weena's story, records the original Time Traveler's later trips, and ties up the loose ends about the rules and effects of time travel. A fourth book, 802701 AD is Weena's version of the eight days of the Time Traveler's visit and a prequel to the trilogy.
As for me, I live in Orlando Florida with my wife Cynthia, Daughter Jennifer and Granddaughter Larrna.
