TIME ENOUGH: A Journey Through Time, Identity, and the Unexpected

My new science fiction novel, TIME ENOUGH, is available for preorder now! Official release date: December 11, 2026.

There's something both exciting and terrifying about releasing a new novel into the wild. You've spent countless hours writing, rewriting, editing, questioning your sanity, and occasionally wondering whether your characters are deliberately trying to make your life difficult.

And then, one day, it's finished.

Well, finished enough that you finally have to stop messing with it.

I'm delighted to announce that my forthcoming science fiction novel, TIME ENOUGH, is now available for preorder on Amazon, with an official release date of December 11, 2026.

What Is TIME ENOUGH About?

Meet Lathè Donner.

Lathè isn't a superhero. He isn't a soldier, a secret agent, or some brilliant physicist who accidentally invents a time machine in his garage.

He's a systems administrator at a modest hospital in Richmond, Virginia.

He has a good job, an excellent salary, a comfortable life, and a woman he's about to marry. He's a good employee, a good neighbor, and a reasonably content man.

In other words, he's the sort of person who should never become the central character in a science fiction thriller.

Unfortunately for Lathè, the universe has other plans.

Like many computer security professionals, Lathè is obsessive about protecting his identity.

That particular habit is the only thing that saves his life.

Because one day, people come looking for him.

They think he's someone else. Someone important. Someone dangerous. Someone who may not even exist in the way they imagine.

And when they come for him, everything changes.

What follows is a journey through danger, death, destruction, and the very fabric of time itself.

Lathè Donner finds himself running from forces he barely understands, caught in events that stretch far beyond the ordinary world he once knew.

They thought he was the one. They were wrong. He was better. He was far worse.

And he stood at the crossroads of time.

Why I Wrote This Book

I've always loved science fiction that starts with an ordinary person confronted by something utterly extraordinary.

Not everyone who changes the world begins with a grand destiny. Sometimes history turns on the actions of someone who was perfectly happy minding his own business.

I also love stories that explore the consequences of our decisions, especially when those consequences reach farther than anyone could possibly anticipate.

TIME ENOUGH gave me an opportunity to explore those ideas on a very large canvas.

It's a story about identity, survival, unintended consequences, and what happens when one man's life becomes entangled with forces capable of changing history.

And, of course, it's about time.

Because there's never quite as much of it as we think.

A Little Bit of Everything I Love About Science Fiction

If you enjoy science fiction with mystery, suspense, dangerous secrets, unexpected twists, and a protagonist who has to think his way through situations that would make most sensible people run screaming, I think you'll enjoy TIME ENOUGH.

It's the kind of story where the answers often lead to bigger questions, where nothing is necessarily what it seems, and where the difference between saving the world and destroying it might depend on a single decision.

I've tried to make Lathè someone readers can understand, even when the circumstances surrounding him become anything but ordinary.

He's not perfect. He's not always right. And sometimes the things he does for perfectly understandable reasons have terrible consequences.

That's part of what makes his journey interesting to me.

December 11th Is Almost Here!

After all the hours spent living with these characters, I'm looking forward to finally sharing their story.

TIME ENOUGH releases December 11, 2026, and you can preorder your copy right now.

If you've enjoyed my previous books, I hope you'll give this one a look. And if you're discovering my writing for the first time, welcome aboard.

I can't promise you a quiet ride.

But I can promise you that Lathè Donner's life is about to become considerably more interesting than he ever wanted it to be.

Preorder TIME ENOUGH on Amazon.

Thanks, as always, for reading and supporting independent science fiction.

December 11th. The clock is ticking... And there may not be TIME ENOUGH.

The Cat Who Ate My Deadline

There are two kinds of writers in the world: those who work in peaceful solitude and those who own cats.I belong to the second group.

My cat, Bailey, is convinced he's my editor.

Every morning, I sit down at my computer with a fresh cup of coffee, a head full of ideas, and the foolish belief that today will be productive.

Bailey has other plans.

The moment I open my manuscript, he appears. I don't know where he comes from. He could be asleep three rooms away, but somehow he hears the distinctive sound of Microsoft Word opening.

First comes the stare. He sits beside my keyboard, watching me with the expression of an editor who has just discovered I've used the word *suddenly* four times in one paragraph.

Then comes the paw.

One enormous, furry foot lands on the keyboard, transforming my carefully crafted sentence into:

*"The alien commander raised his weapon and shouted jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj."*

Frankly, it's better than some of my dialogue.

I gently move him aside.

He returns.

I move him again.

He returns with reinforcements, namely his entire furry body, which he deposits directly across the keyboard.

Apparently, the space bar is warm, and my manuscript needs more spaces.

I attempt to negotiate.

"Look, Bailey. I have a deadline."

He blinks.

"People are waiting for this book."

He yawns.

Clearly, my editor is unimpressed.

Eventually, I resort to bribery. I offer treats, toys, and access to the forbidden cardboard box in the hallway.

Nothing works.

Bailey has editorial concerns, and apparently they can only be addressed by sitting directly on Chapter Seventeen.

Finally, in desperation, I pick him up and put him on my lap.

He immediately falls asleep.

Victory!

Except now I can't reach the keyboard without disturbing him, and every cat owner knows that waking a sleeping cat is a violation of international law.

So I sit there, motionless, watching my coffee get cold while my protagonist remains trapped in a burning spaceship.

Three hours later, my wife asks how the writing is going.

"Great," I tell her. "I've written twelve words."

"That's all?"

"Thirteen, if you count Bailey's contribution."

She looks at the sleeping animal.

"Well, at least somebody's working hard."

And that, dear readers, is why my next novel is late.

It's not writer's block.

It's editorial interference.

**P.S.** Bailey has reviewed this blog post. He deleted two paragraphs, added seventeen pages of the letter Q, and demanded more tuna.

He also insists the ending needs work.

I disagree, but he's currently sitting on the Delete key.

So we'll see.

A.I. movies are not far away...

Some Dude using A.I. to make this...

In the style of Edward Hopper...

Drink Coffee, Make Stuff Up....

The ignorance of cats...

 

HBOMAX: Backrooms

Well, that was original and creepy as hell...

Excellent writing. Well filmed. Well acted. I recommend.
