Jensen: Time Traveler
From Create Your Own Story
Contents |
Author's Introduction
Welcome. My name is Josh, but my online handle is Zinger2099. I am a writer, and hopefully one day, a film director. I have been a fan of the Choose Your Own Adventure novels since I was a young boy. The very concept of being able to choose the course of action to be taken and directly affect the events to come was monumental in my young mind. They provided more entertainment then regular books, movies and video games combined. Granted, at the time, video games consisted of Atari, but still. Nowadays I get my CYOA fix by playing Dungeons & Dragons, which really takes the concept to a whole ne level. But I still have very fond memories of those books I read as a child. So naturally, when I was searching on google for these books, and I came across this website, I was thrilled. I think the Wiki format is a great way to tell Choose Your Own Adventure stories, and I plan to put it to good use. Feedback is always apreciated and if you'd like to get ahold of me, my email is zinger2099@hotmail.com. I hope you enjoy my own brand of Choose Your Own Adventures!

Niffenegger's debut novel, The Time Traveler's Wife (2003), was a national bestseller. The Time Traveler's Wife is an unconventional love story that centers on a man with a strange genetic disorder that causes him to unpredictably time-travel and his wife, an artist, who has to cope with his frequent and unpredictable absences.
Upon reading this novel, I absolutely fell in love with it's enriched story. The characters and the plot took me in, and renewed my love for reading that had been dead for quite some time. This novel was so powerful to me that it has inspired me to write about a Time Traveler of my own. Enter Jensen, a whole new Time Traveler. Think of Jensen's story as no more then a fan fiction spinoff based losely on The Time Traveler's Wife. In writing it, I mean no disrespect to the novel that spawned it, or it's author. Audrey Niffenegger, if you are reading this, please understand that my story is being crafted out of love and respect for your novel and it's characters.
If you like Jensen's Choose Your Own Adventure, you should treat yourself to a good read and pick up The Time Traveler's Wife. You won't regret it.
