I was born in Melbourne, Australia, in 1958. I grew up living mainly in Victoria.
Changing residences often meant changing schools and the need for me to make friends easily. Developing an understanding of the value of family and friendships was imperative for a balanced and fruitful life. I attended Monash University both as a part-time and full-time student over the years, adding to my depth of understanding about living a fruitful life.
I have worked constantly and creatively to become an exhibiting artist and sculptor and now a science fiction author. I have painted and sculpted but nothing has held my interest as long as creative writing has.
I started writing this story of Dimensional Travellers from future times, some 40 years ago, as an exercise in the creative processes and storytelling. After leaving sets of storyline pages in the safekeeping of my sister-in-law, Sue, it was not until many years later when Sue suggested, “Now you can write one of these stories as a book”.
This story is one of those storylines. It has grown and expanded to become that story in book form. It makes me laugh out loud and cry tears of deep emotion.
This book has facts that have remained constant. Some of the facts have, since the modern micro and macro scientific studies, been changed. So, that fact narrative now becomes a new and plausible fact in the new age of scientific discovery. Other detailed facts are yet to be discovered, which all add to the science fictional storyline.
I have enjoyed reading science fiction over the years and some of the titles of those books have been used with different storyboards for The Dragon Ring, Omni and Cinderella for each story told by the characters within these pages. There has been no plagiarism.
When the full story of Dimensional Travellers first formed, my real journey into writing my first completed manuscript and first book to be published began. You will find a difference between the letter ‘T’ or ‘t’ (implying the differernce between current time and Time (meaning dimensions)). As well as the word ‘Gravity’ meaning not ‘Magnetic Attraction’ but ‘the attraction of a small thing to the larger’.
This is that story of Earthlings.
My plan is to keep writing towards a continuation of this book. Sue takes the Zushna family to destinations she visits for her rest and exciting adventures. Meeting people of different and very distant worlds provides an exciting lead up to their continuance as dimensional travellers changing the future by adjusting the past.
This story begins where they live, in the future, aeons before their chosen destination, in the dimensional time of their past. Please enjoy.
Sincerely.
Dev Duthie
