This is a collection of Weekly Free Writes and other stories which take place within the Times of the HG Wells universe that I have created, or have something to do with any of the principals in that series, or their counterparts. The principals are: canon character Temporal Agent Richard Daniels, HD Avery, Daniel Beauchaine, Sheilagh Bernstein, Branch Borodin, Admiral Carmen Calavicci, Dr. Marisol Castillo, Levi Cavendish, Otra D’Angelo, Thomas Grant, Deirdre Katzman, Kevin O’Connor, Polly Porter, Crystal Sherwood and Dr. Boris Yarin.

At the beginning of each chapter, I’ll introduce it with the teaser information (if any) plus the date(s) when a story took place. Some stories take place during several time periods; I’ll try to cover them all. Furthermore, I’ll put the stories together in chronological order by their main time periods. Therefore, it’s entirely possible that I will write something at a later date which takes place earlier. Hence you will probably see some shuffling.

Lots of these stories are referenced in the eight big books from the series.  Therefore, those eight books are also listed, although they are not duplicated here. Rather, they are listed in chronological order as well, with teaser copy and dates, but only with a link to where a book is already posted. Those books are A Long, Long Time Ago; Ohio; You Mixed-Up Siciliano; Spring Thaw; Where the Wind Comes Sweepin’ Down the Plain; The Point is Probably Moot; Shake Your Body and He Stays a Stranger. Prequel books First Born, Temper and Coveted Commodity are also referenced; they are also a part of the In Between Days universe (HG Wells is a sequel universe to In Between Days). Any other books written in the future will be referenced rather than duplicated. The eight big books are divided into three sections. Section I is called Repairs, and contains A Long, Long Time Ago; Ohio and You Mixed-Up Siciliano. Section II is called Complications and contains Spring Thaw and Where the Wind Comes Sweepin’ Down the Plain. Section III is called Unravelings and contains The Point is Probably Moot; Shake Your Body and He Stays a Stranger.

The title Times of the HG Wells refers to the voyages of the time ship of that name and the general workings of the 31st and 32nd century Temporal Integrity Commission. The structure of the eight big books is meant to be a serial evocative of the season-long canon ENT Xindi arc, where all of the stories were interrelated.

My hope is that by putting the stories together this way, they will begin to have more context and coherence, and that the reader will be able to better see how it all fits together.

As always, I thank you for reading, reviewing and inspiring.

Foreword

This is a collection of Weekly Free Writes and stories which take place in the Mirror Universe. These stories cross through other series and are often repeated there.

At the beginning of each chapter, I’ll introduce it with the teaser information (if any) plus the date(s) when a story took place. Some stories take place during several time periods; I’ll try to cover them all. Furthermore, I’ll put the stories together in chronological order by their main time periods. Therefore, it’s entirely possible that I will write something at a later date which takes place earlier. Hence you will probably see some shuffling.

My hope is that by putting these stories together this way, they will begin to have more coherence, and that the reader will be able to better see how it all fits together.

As always, I thank you for reading, reviewing and inspiring.

Time is unraveling. 

How could it be wrong for her to be alive again? 

Someone was going around in time, putting things right that once went wrong.

And while it seemed like it could be a good idea, it wasn’t.

For every time one thing was changed, a thousand others were. And inevitably, things were worse than before. And the do-gooder’s definition of right and wrong wasn’t the best of standards. 

This kind of meddling threatened space and time, yet the meddlers – who thought these were good deeds – weren’t stopping.

It was up to Rick to put back the original history, whatever it was.

In 2161, Travis Mayweather decides what he really wants out of life, and what he will do in order to get it.

How do you begin, or begin anew?

What’s going to happen next?

What if you could predict it, or at least have a good handle on forever?

What would you do with that information?

And for the people you’ve promised yourself to, forever, what does that really mean? Do you ignore the truth, or do you listen to all of it, even the ugliest parts?

Meet Lili O'Day, sous-chef on the NX-01. In 2157, she's got little to look forward to, save hearing from Chef what's for dinner that night.

Until she begins having interesting dreams ....

This story has two musical themes.

Lili's theme is Roy Orbison's "Dream Baby": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSddgYKtPBE  

Her mystery man's theme is Robbie Williams's "Feel": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XHuyJyyZXU

(2267) The captain is dead. Leonard McCoy can't wish long life to the new one.
