#WritingWonders #DayThree : If your MC had a wanted poster, what info would be on it?
Here's the poster.
Note: the photo was generated by Dall-E. I put together the poster with Adobe Express.
Caption

#TimeTravelAuthors #DayThree : Properly introduce your time travel story
I came up with the idea from a single premise: what if The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was cyberpunk?
In our story, Dorothy Gale is a young physicist in the present time at MIT. She's kind of a loner. Her best friends are from her books: Albert Einstein, Richard Feynman, et. al. And of course, her Boston terrier, Toto.
She's working on a method for FTL communication by generating quantum wormholes, through which information could be passed through, but stumbles upon something greater when she manages to stabilize and enlarge one of the wormholes until it's large enough for a person to pass through.
She's been running away most of her life, so she grabs her go bag and steps through, and finds herself 1000 years in the future. By this point, people have moved underground. Society is not what it once was, with micro-kingdoms dotting the map.
She's unable to reopen the wormhole, but is it told the wise Wizard of a nearby kingdom can help.
