Petra Vincent is at the end of her rope - or rather, the edge of a bridge. Her world is falling apart around her and she sees no way out of the meaningless existence the future has in store. But when stranded time traveler Moses Morgan tells her that she will one day lead the country out of the rubble of a nuclear civil war as President of the United States, she's intrigued - and when another time traveler starts trying to preemptively assassinate her, she realizes Moses might be telling the truth...
Anachronism is a time-traveling, adventure-filled novella with a whole bagful of danger, twists, and snarky banter.
Available June 1st from Kristell Ink, an imprint of Grimbold Books.
Anachronism is my first novella. It features a gay main character and is appropriate for a young adult audience.
Content warnings:
There is no sexual content except for a vague reference, some gun violence and threats of gun violence (nothing is described in any graphic detail), and some naughty language.
While I strived to keep the tone light and hopeful, the main character is mentally ill depressed, and is contemplating suicide at the beginning of the book. It is not a book *about* those things and after the first chapter they exist mostly in the background, but they are part of Petra and are mentioned at points throughout the book.
I am depressed and mentally ill myself, and I believe I handled these sensitive topics with as much sensitivity as I could. Your mental health is important to me.
