Physics of Time Travel
By Jo Ann Ferguson
November 30 - December 11
Readers love time travel stories. There’s nothing quite as romantic as two
lovers separated by centuries who find each other. But readers also expect
the stories to have a plausibility about them - a logical way to suspend
belief in the impossible. Learn some basics about “real” time travel (from
a non-physicist) and some ways to make readers come along on the
extraordinary journey with your characters. The two-week discussion will
provide examples from television, the movies, and novels.
