So does anyone think that to continue this book, the author and kickstarter are part of the history, since time doesn’t change, wouldn’t he have known about it and the release. This creating an enviornement for actually putting the audience into the second book… maybe I’m crazy…

Well, I won’t comment on whether anyone is crazy, but here’s something you CAN noodle on… I started working on getting this together in March of 2018 and had it ready for the editors by May of 2018. However, there are some events mentioned in the book that had not yet happened even as of May 2018 (specifically, the comment Clifton made about the Summit supercomputer).
“In June of this year, your government’s Department of Energy and the IBM company will announce the world’s fastest supercomputer, called the Summit. That unit will be capable of performing 200,000 trillion calculations per second, which should be sufficient to manage the quantum and spatial formula calculations. It would be slow, but it would be possible.”

Shall I queue the twilight zone music now?
I’m glad you’re enjoying the book. The sequel should be ready by January.

So now I have to ask, as the responses continue to portray facts… the sequel… does that merely stem off imagination or does that work in tangent to the question I asked in our private conversation which is below.does he have the ability to contact you now that his story is public?or… Is there more content from Clifton that can be confirmed through real time data… eg the Summit? Also why do you have to hold in such information now after the book is released? If it would bring even more credibility to the story after and to the dedicated followers?
Previous question:
So one question for the sequel… if he had the capabilities to access WiFi via “telepathy” (and wouldn’t give them that information as it’s a freedom and ability to control his situation as secretly as possible)why does he not reach out more through different standardized emails, and how is there not more access/detail to immediate future details pertaining to our localized century and “history”?
T.E. Willis’ Answer:
Great question. First, a correction. Clifton did not use telepathy. He has a datstem implant, which is how he accessed the available wifi networks.
Next, he was simply giving the journalists the information they had asked for. They asked for summary files on several topics, which is what his datstem then created and sent. Had they asked for more information about our century, I’m sure he would have sent that too.
Finally, in the sequel, you’ll understand that Clifton, though truly stranded in our time, was not as helpless (or hopeless) as he might have seemed. He was actually following a very careful plan to achieve an objective he had set for himself here in the past. So, while he was truly stranded, he was not actually motivated to share a lot of information with the locals. He was actually sharing only enough information necessary to achieve his objective (which I will leave secret for now – until the sequel is released).
Thanks again!

The sequel is being written as a true novel. The first book, as you know, contains a word-for-word rendition of interviews and transmitted (future) historical files. That does not “read” like a traditional novel. So, when I made the decision to share what happened to Clifton, I decided it would be written as a traditional novel.
Next, in answer to your question about whether there is more information that we can confirm, personally, I am waiting to hear about the particle accelerator breakthrough that is supposed to occur shortly. In the book, Clifton describes the accelerator that was used to create the first singularity, and says, “That device was based on a linear accelerator approach first conceived by the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory at Stanford University in 2017. The SLAC researchers will shortly announce they have discovered a method of reducing both the size and increasing the speed, of a particle accelerator. That breakthrough will ultimately allow particle accelerators to be reduced to meters, rather than kilometers, while also greatly increasing the speed of acceleration.”
When asked about it, he added, “They announced their theoretical design model last year, and they are working on the prototype now. They will have the prototype completed by March of 2021.”
So, I’m waiting to see if they finish their prototype by March 2021 (<3 years). That will be something to hear!
The book also describes a solar eclipse over Brazil on a specific date, the future orbital position of Mars in relation to the Earth, and similar events. I’d love to have someone check those out.

Book 3 is nearing completion. Clifton makes a re-appearance and helps two temporal enforcement officers locate and arrest an escaped executive from the future, who is hiding in the past. The book is set for publication at the end of February 2021, and the title will be “Elle, Temporal Enforcement Officer”.
