Are you burnt out on time travel stories? I ask this, because I am writing an outline for a science-fiction novel. If successful, it will be the first of a four-book saga known as a tetralogy. What lead me to wanting to write this vast story is a simple question. What if you were building a time machine, and before you finish, you discover your future self had already changed the past and the future in a very bad way? What if you had to clean up the mess? This is what gave way to me writing my book. I don't think this has really been explored all that often. However, I love how SG-1 "Moebius" handled it. The team tries to snatch a ZPM from the past, but who expected to get stranded? Good intentions lead to an alternate timeline, and their alternate selves had to clean up the mess. This is a good example of what kind of territory my story will explore.
The big question is, are you open to a book about time-travel should it feel new, fresh, and original?
