KarenninaPosa I'm hosting tonight's chat with the wonderful
@AnshaKotyk #mglitchat -9:02 PM Jun 28th, 2012
christinesarmel Hi! #mglitchat Hoping to learn enough about
time travel to send myself to a cooler, less humid place. -9:02 PM Jun 28th,

michaelascotto Interested to hear thoughts on plot devices
in MG #mglitchat -9:02 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Wait! Wait! We need to go back and start again!
#MGLitChat -9:02 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa @PippaBayliss it's time! Good to see you!
#mglitchat -9:02 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk RT @AnshaKotyk: So time travel is one of my
favorite... YES to Quantum Leap... #mglitchat -9:03 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf First, in SciFi, there are two schools of thought

AnshaKotyk Tweetdeck is dragging... time delay on
#mglitchat. mwhahahaa. okay I'll stop onw -9:03 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa We listed time travel and wishes as plot
devices. Any others we should cover tonight? #mglitchat -9:03 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss oh yay! if this as good as I expect it to be,
I'm coming back tomorrow to do it all over again ... #mglitchat -9:04 PM Jun

AniProf (a) The past cannot be altered ... period. (b) The
past can be altered, but that may create a parallel reality. #MGLitChat -9:04
PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @KarenninaPosa Alternate realities? Parallel
universes? #MGLitChat -9:05 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @aniprof Yes? Waiting with bated breath...2
schools of thought on scifi? #mglitchat -9:05 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @KarenninaPosa secret lives/societies? I don't
know if you'd consider that a plot device. #mglitchat -9:05 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Harry Potter followed option (a). #MGLitChat -9:05
PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss @KarenninaPosa you're so cute. you know we
never stick to an agenda. we'll be all over the place before you know it ;)
#mglitchat -9:05 PM Jun 28th, 2012
michaelascotto Plot devices like time travel can't be
excuses for anything-goes; they have to follow a rigorous internal logic
#mglitchat -9:06 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @AniProf I don't really think of time travel as a
plot device.... just something I love to read and write about. #MGLitChat -9:06
PM Jun 28th, 2012
elliefalcone I'd love to time travel to the future just to
be done with these edits. #mglitchat -9:06 PM Jun 28th, 2012

#mglitchat -9:06 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss can you lovelies define 'plot device' for me?
sorry & please, (it's late ...) #mglitchat -9:06 PM Jun 28th, 2012
coachhays64 In MG, plot device use is wide open, as long as
it "fits", makes sense, and is not a MacGyver-ish,
fall-out-of-the-sky solution. #mglitchat -9:06 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Wikipedia: "A plot device is an object or

KarenninaPosa @PippaBayliss shhh. We need the appearance of
being organized. 'least, til the unicorns come or the frogs or whatever it is.
#mglitchat -9:09 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @michaelascotto This is very true, no excuses in
the use of said plot device. #mglitchat -9:09 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf As a college prof, I know that before one engages in
a discussion, definitions need to be agreed on. #MGLitChat -9:09 PM Jun 28th,
2012
anglarsen I agree the important thing w/plot devices is that
they follow rules, even if u make them up #mglitchat esp. #timetravel -9:10 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @AniProf So the goal then, is to properly setup
your plot device so it does not look contrived, but natural. #MGLitChat -9:10
PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf So, let's get specific. Any titles where time
travel, or wishes, were a prominent feature? #MGLitChat -9:10 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss ;) snork! RT @KarenninaPosa: shhh. We need the
appearance of being organized til the unicorns come or the frogs or whatever

KarenninaPosa RT @michaelascotto: Plot devices eg. time
travel cant be excuses for anything-goes; they have to follow a rigorous
internal logic #mglitchat -9:11 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @AnshaKotyk Precisely. The reader should not
"notice" the plot device. #MGLitChat -9:12 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @anglarsen Right. The setup needs to happen so it
appears natural to the story. #mglitchat #timetravel -9:12 PM Jun 28th, 2012
Mike_Jung WHEN YOU REACH ME is right up there at the top.
Time travel is very much a plot device, used subtly and powerfully. #mglitchat
-9:12 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa @AnshaKotyk @AniProf So a plot device
shouldn't look like a device at all, but is natural, organic to the story
#mglitchat -9:12 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @AniProf Titles: 11 Birthdays (#wish? Maybe?) and
my book #timetravel ;) #mglitchat would love other timetravel titles! -9:12 PM

AnshaKotyk @anglarsen Haddix has a series... #wish

AniProf All elements of a story, including plot devices,
need to look natural. However, time travel can be a harder sell. #MGLitChat

rachelgrinti Sneaking in late, was finishing my dinner!
#mglitchat -9:15 PM Jun 28th, 2012
Mike_Jung An upcoming MG is KATERINA'S WISH by Jeannie
Mobley. It plays off an old folk story about a magical carp that grants wishes.
#mglitchat -9:15 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa So something that moves the story from
ordinary world to exotic world is a plot device? Eg., tesseract in A Wrinkle in
Time? #mglitchat -9:15 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @rachelgrinti *waves* hi! #mglitchat -9:15 PM Jun
28th, 2012
anglarsen "LOST" was so irritating b/c they used
EVERY plot device with no rules. Drove me bonkers (not MG, but instructive)
#mglitchat -9:15 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @KarenninaPosa Exotic? Not necessarily. A plot
device could be a briefcase that everyone is after. #MGLitChat -9:16 PM Jun
28th, 2012
PippaBayliss Time Warp Trio comes to mind - lots of fun,
lots of history, not so much sci-fi #mglitchat -9:16 PM Jun 28th, 2012
michaelascotto @KDuBayGillis Breadbox sets strong
"rules" and uses them masterfully #mglitchat -9:16 PM Jun 28th, 2012
elliefalcone Flight by Sherman Alexie is another although
definitely YA and not MG. #mglitchat -9:17 PM Jun 28th, 2012
kurtisscaletta So is the topic #timetravel? #mglitchat I'll
go back fifteen minutes so I can start at the beginning. -9:17 PM Jun 28th,
2012
AnshaKotyk @anglarsen So THAT's why I couldn't get into it.
;) Rules are very important for a good suspension of disbelief. #mglitchat
-9:17 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen RT @karenninaposa: So something that moves the
story from ordinary world to exotic world is a plot device? ... A Wrinkle in
Time? #mglitchat -9:17 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa @AniProf I meant "exotic world" as
in the story world, not the ordinary world of the character #mglitchat -9:17 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Re Time Travel: Needs to have firm rules on how it
works, with absolutely nothing that violates those rules. #MGLitChat -9:18 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
vickijohnson RT @LaurelSnyder: I'm really really in a
#mglitchat mood today. -9:18 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @kurtisscaletta And other such plot devices. :)
#timetravel #mglitchat -9:18 PM Jun 28th, 2012
bonnyglen @Mike_Jung I saw KATERINA'S WISH at ALA--gorgeous
cover. Looks like my kind of book. #mglitchat -9:18 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @KarenninaPosa Again, exotic not always. Could be
ordinary world as well. #MGLitChat -9:18 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @AnshaKotyk LOL...yes, that's why you couldn't get
into Lost ;-) Not b/c u had writing to do! #mglitchat -9:19 PM Jun 28th, 2012
coachhays64 @AniProf Look natural like a portkey in Harry
Potter. Time travel devices which are a technology are harder to make natural.
#mglitchat -9:19 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf BTW, MG SciFi is WHAT I write. #MGLitChat -9:19 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
Bethyo @AnshaKotyk Ooh, I really like the Missing series,
but I've been stuck on book three for quite some time. #mglitchat #timetravel
-9:19 PM Jun 28th, 2012
vickijohnson #mglitchat I'm time traveling (in a different
time zone on vacation) but I'm here! -9:19 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @anglarsen Exactly... but yeah, I did kinda quit
TV when I started writing, (my own stories are more fun to follow) *giggle*
#mglitchat -9:20 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PBWorkshop Just stopped by to see the topic but will have to
time warp to the archive later- great examples so far! Chat on, chat on.
#mglitchat -9:20 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @coachhays64 Harry Potter plot devices worked
because J.K. made sure they all fit together with their own logic. #MGLitChat
-9:20 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss When I started subbing, time travel was cold.
Now light sci-fi is getting hot so we shld see a lot more of it. #mglitchat
-9:20 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen Question: is #timetravel necessarily SciFi? Just
curious... #mglitchat what do u think, @AniProf ? -9:20 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @Bethyo I never got beyond book 2... I liked it
but, so many books, so little time... #mglitchat #timetravel -9:21 PM Jun 28th,
2012
AnshaKotyk @vickijohnson Wow, Vaca and still at #mglitchat.
That's plain awesome. -9:21 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @anglarsen True time travel is SciFi, no doubt. But,
it could also be fantasy if supported by magic. #MGLitChat -9:22 PM Jun 28th,
2012
PBWorkshop oops, have to stay long enough to mention
@LaurelSnyder's Any Which Wall- a perfect device. #mglitchat -9:22 PM Jun 28th,
2012
PippaBayliss @PBWorkshop bye - sorry you can't join us, but
enjoy the archive #mglitchat -9:22 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @anglarsen Scifi has to have Science playing a
central role in the story... I don't think that's necessarily all timetravel
#mglitchat -9:22 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf If time travel is via magic, then all rules of
science go out the window. #MGLitChat -9:22 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @aniprof Thanks! Great explanation! re:
#timetravel scifi and magic! #mglitchat -9:24 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk What are some other plot devices? Do vampires
count? mwhahaha? How about zombies? #mglitchat -9:24 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PBWorkshop For younger readers, Magic Treehouse series is a
great way to build their capacity for sorting fact and fantasy. I'm gone now!!!
#mglitchat -9:24 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss according to BEA reports we will be seeing a
mix of sci-fi & fantasy, a merging of the genres. This will be awesome if
done well #mglitchat -9:24 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Question: How do you feel about time travel that
plays it loose with changing the past? #MGLitChat -9:25 PM Jun 28th, 2012
elliefalcone Time traveling zombies. #mglitchat -9:25 PM Jun
28th, 2012
PippaBayliss How scientific is MG sci-fi? RT @AniProf: If
time travel is via magic, then all rules of science go out the window.
#mglitchat -9:25 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @anshakotyk Good point, too! Maybe all #timetravel
has "rules" and those rules can be fictional but have to appear
scientific? #mglitchat -9:25 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @PippaBayliss Awesome on the BEA reports. Love
the stuff. #mglitchat -9:26 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @elliefalcone Oooh, I could eat that up! #MGLitChat
-9:26 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa @AniProf time travel with loose rules confuses
me. #mglitchat -9:26 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss @AniProf What do you mean by 'playing it
loose'? #mglitchat -9:26 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @AniProf Bwhahahahaha! #MGLitChat -9:27 PM Jun
28th, 2012
AniProf @PippaBayliss MG SciFi "Should" be as
scientific as any other reading level SciFi. Of course, science changes over
time. #MGLitChat -9:27 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa Magic, time travel, portkey, they must all
have rules to work. #mglitchat -9:27 PM Jun 28th, 2012
elliefalcone @AniProf As in, "Braaaiiiiiinnns" or
you like the idea? #mglitchat -9:27 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @aniprof No prob about changing the past. My one
rule: do it well and I don't care ;-) #mglitchat -9:27 PM Jun 28th, 2012

rewritten and rewritten and rewritten ... Think Back to the Future. #MGLitChat

for a humorous MG novel. #MGLitChat -9:29 PM Jun 28th, 2012

loved. It actually made 'sense' to me. #mglitchat -9:29 PM Jun 28th, 2012

must add to list. #mglitchat -9:30 PM Jun 28th, 2012

sense to me too as it had consequences to messing with the time line.

piece for my online MG mag? #MGLitChat -9:32 PM Jun 28th, 2012

Gideon the Cutpurse last year and loved it! #mglitchat -9:32 PM Jun 28th, 2012

with past interaction while avoiding all potential changes. Ignores cause &

#MGLitChat -9:38 PM Jun 28th, 2012
evermeg hi #mglitchat folks. Just now joining you. I'm a
newbie #mglitchat -9:38 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @AnshaKotyk THANKS! #MGLitChat -9:38 PM Jun 28th,
2012
KDuBayGillis @AniProf We started doing that for early chats.
Was daunting. Maybe for our one year anniversary in July we'll do it.
#mglitchat -9:38 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea Also I love TENNYSON which is where a girl has
visions of her past while living in her families plantation. Brilliant.
#mglitchat -9:38 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin @ixtumea She travels into the past and lives
there for a few days...is it a dream? Maybe. Intros Led Zep to her musical
hero. #mglitchat -9:38 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @KristineAsselin It's a dream. Not time travel.
#mglitchat -9:38 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Or ... frozen in ice for a long time, and then
thawed successfully. #MGLitChat -9:39 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KDuBayGillis @evermeg Welcome! Pull up a chair. We love new
chatters! #mglitchat -9:39 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea TENNYSON was a Cybils nominated book I got to read
as a MG panelist. Really enjoyed it. #mglitchat -9:39 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @ixtumea is it PRADA AND PREJUDICE? #mglitchat
-9:39 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @AniProf Or the movie 13 going on 30... Jennifer
Garner... dreaming/wishing about the future. #MGLitChat -9:39 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin @ixtumea Okay, interesting. If it's a dream,
do we still consider it time travel? What if the MC believes it's real.
#mglitchat -9:39 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @anglarsen Yes! You got it. **Hides head! #mglitchat
-9:39 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa @AniProf Like in Across the Universe?
#mglitchat -9:39 PM Jun 28th, 2012
evermeg @KDuBayGillis oh, thanks!!! Still getting up to
speed. #mglitchat -9:40 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @KristineAsselin Good question. I'd say no but
others might disagree. #mglitchat -9:40 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin @ixtumea Prada and Prejudice might have only
been a dream. Is it time travel? #mglitchat -9:40 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @anglarsen Head ... hurts ... #MGLitChat -9:40 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen LOVED that flick RT @anshakotyk: @AniProf Or the
movie 13 going on 30... Jennifer Garner... dreaming/wishing about the future.
#MGLitChat -9:40 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @KDuBayGillis @AniProf eeek Now that Kellie said
that I'm afriad to try!! #MGLitChat -9:40 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @KristineAsselin I'd say that one is time travel.
#mglitchat -9:40 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss oh dear, #mglitchat has gone into a time loop -
is it just me? #mglitchat -9:40 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @AnshaKotyk Or ... BIG #MGLitChat -9:40 PM Jun 28th,
2012
KDuBayGillis @LM_Preston Hi! Plot devices like time travel,
wishes, portals, etc. #mglitchat -9:41 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea So if you do write a time travel? Please don't just
drop the protagonist either back in time or to the future. #mglitchat -9:41 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf So, when do we start this chat? Is it almost 9PM?
#MGLitChat -9:41 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @LM_Preston Time travel and other plot devices.
:) Glad to see you! #mglitchat -9:41 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa @KristineAsselin @ixtumea I didn't think it
was a dream. Wasn't there a scuffed shoe or something at the end? #mglitchat
-9:41 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LM_Preston Oh my! Sounds exciting RT @KDuBayGillis: Plot
devices like time travel, wishes, portals, etc. #mglitchat -9:41 PM Jun 28th,
2012
ixtumea I think the wishes books are fun ones in MG.
#mglitchat -9:41 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LM_Preston @AnshaKotyk Howdy :-D #mglitchat -9:41 PM Jun
28th, 2012
anglarsen @aniprof Hey, dude, you're the one who writes
scifi ;-) #mglitchat -9:42 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea My own upcoming book has a bracelet that has
romantic wishes come true. #mglitchat -9:42 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LM_Preston Writing time travel is so not easy! #mglitchat
-9:42 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KDuBayGillis @AnshaKotyk @AniProf Some chats were more title
heavy than others. We can do it! #mglitchat -9:42 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea Originally it was MG but I'd say it's more a light
YA #mglitchat -9:42 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @anglarsen Oh me too. I love watching it and I
don't rewatch movies very often #MGLitChat -9:42 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @anglarsen True. #MGLitChat -9:42 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin I'm just saying, if the MC believes s/he has
traveled in time...even if it's implied that others don't believe... #mglitchat
-9:43 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @KarenninaPosa That's what I thought too. I thought
she went back in time? That's Mandy Hubbard's book. #mglitchat -9:43 PM Jun
28th, 2012
anglarsen @ixtumea Fun! #mglitchat Title? -9:43 PM Jun 28th,
2012
KarenninaPosa @ixtumea I guess that's the question... did
she or didn't she? time travel, I mean #mglitchat -9:44 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @KristineAsselin I agree with you, if the MC
believes than that is the reality because the reader is usually meant to id
with MC #mglitchat -9:44 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @anglarsen NO GODDESSES ALLOWED. There's Audrey
Hepburn, a bored Egyptian goddesses, and of course a bracelet. #mglitchat -9:44
PM Jun 28th, 2012
KDuBayGillis @anglarsen @ixtumea Is that YOU WISH?
#mglitchat -9:44 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin What about When You Reach Me? Huge time
travel element, but not overt until the end. #mglitchat -9:44 PM Jun 28th, 2012
coachhays64 @ixtumea What about dropping off a pesky,
obnoxious little brother in the 16th century because he won't leave your
slumber party? #mglitchat -9:44 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LM_Preston Getting the MG voice right is sometimes iffy
since kids at that age have different levels of vocabulary #mglitchat -9:45 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Okay, moving on. How about a door (portal) that
leads to ... someplace else? #MGLitChat -9:45 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa @ixtumea I think it's great to leave it
open-ended sometimes. Let the reader decide... #mglitchat -9:45 PM Jun 28th,
2012
ixtumea @anglarsen My main character loves Audrey Hepburn
and mentions her movies/clothes throughout. #mglitchat -9:45 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LM_Preston Oh I see that a lot RT @AniProf: Okay, moving on.
How about a door (portal) that leads to ... someplace else? #MGLitChat -9:45 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @coachhays64 LOL. You know that's funny! #mglitchat
-9:45 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @coachhays64 Fantastic premise!! Yours? #mglitchat
-9:45 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KDuBayGillis @AniProf CORALINE? portal/door, right?
#mglitchat -9:46 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin Or the FOUND series by Margaret Peterson
Haddix. #mglitchat -9:46 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LaurelSnyder @LM_Preston Writing time travel is the hardest
thing I've done... #mglitchat -9:46 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss @AniProf - wots yor take on 'time stream'. My
MC remembers her story after she alters time coz she remains outside the
timestream #mglitchat -9:46 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Portals ... Can they be scientifically explained, or
not? #MGLitChat -9:46 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa How true is it that the portal device is
overused, and that agents/editors don't want to see any more? #mglitchat -9:46
PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @KDuBayGillis Right! Great book, too! #MGLitChat
-9:46 PM Jun 28th, 2012
evermeg @AniProf Doors leading somewhere else is done a lot,
but it's kind of classic. #mglitchat -9:46 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @ixtumea Love it! Great title and premise!
#mglitchat -9:47 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KDuBayGillis @AniProf Oh, and LION, WITCH, WARDROBE. Aaaaah.
#mglitchat -9:47 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin @Steph_Lawton Thank you! Time travel, right?
Not a dream? Or am I splitting hairs...#mglitchat :) -9:47 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @LaurelSnyder Have you tried to do a time travel MG?
#mglitchat -9:47 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @KDuBayGillis Ooh, yes! That's a classic! #mglitchat
-9:47 PM Jun 28th, 2012
story_queen @AniProf I did this once, in a draft...didn't
turn out so well. But it could be done well, I think, just by someone else.
#mglitchat -9:47 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf For me, a portal that just "happens" to
lead someplace else is ... boring. #MGLitChat -9:47 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @KDuBayGillis Classic! #MGLitChat -9:48 PM Jun 28th,
2012
evermeg @KarenninaPosa Wondering the same thing... about
overuse. #mglitchat -9:48 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LM_Preston I bet, there's world building of 2 places or more
& time RT @LaurelSnyder: Writing time travel is the hardest thing I've
done... #mglitchat -9:48 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss Does anyone care? ;) RT @AniProf: Portals ...
Can they be scientifically explained, or not? WORMHOLES? #mglitchat -9:48 PM
Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin Great portal book (adult) The Other Life by
Ellen Meister. #mglitchat -9:48 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LaurelSnyder @ixtumea I've been at work on one for about 2
years now. Past deadline. HARD. #mglitchat -9:48 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf @KDuBayGillis But for the Narnia tales, each portal
can only be used once. #MGLitChat -9:48 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen @pippabayliss @aniprof What's a timestream?
#mglitchat #I'mclueless -9:48 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @LaurelSnyder Oooh....#mglitchat -9:48 PM Jun 28th,
2012
LaurelSnyder @LM_Preston Well, and the two worlds have to
affect each other, in "reality" and in the consciousness of the
traveler. #mglitchat -9:49 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KDuBayGillis @AniProf True. I personally always wanted an
origin story for C.S. Lewis' wardrobe. #mglitchat -9:49 PM Jun 28th, 2012
PippaBayliss @AniProf joking aside, it's prolly tough to
explain in your novel without getting super techie - how do you do it?
#mglitchat -9:50 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @LaurelSnyder Exactly. And kids aren't dumb.
#mglitchat -9:50 PM Jun 28th, 2012
coachhays64 @anglarsen No, but my sister would have liked to
have done it. There may be something to it, surely it has been done before.
#mglitchat -9:50 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KristineAsselin @KDuBayGillis The Magician's Nephew tells
how the wardrobe was created! #mglitchat -9:50 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KDuBayGillis @AniProf Really? I don't remember that rule. I
have to re-read. #mglitchat -9:50 PM Jun 28th, 2012
anglarsen Prob w/any device when used 4 convenience RT
@aniprof: For me, a portal that just "happens" to lead someplace else
is...boring. #MGLitChat -9:50 PM Jun 28th, 2012
LaurelSnyder @KDuBayGillis It's all there, in the wood from
the wood between the worlds. Magician's Nephew. Wardrobe is made of it!
#mglitchat -9:50 PM Jun 28th, 2012
ixtumea @LaurelSnyder Kids like where things kind of make
sense. It doesn't have to be college physics but something. #mglitchat -9:50 PM

reading the tweet. #mglitchat -9:50 PM Jun 28th, 2012

KarenninaPosa @KDuBayGillis the wardrobe's origin was
explained in the first book.The Magician's Nephew. Apple tree from Narnia's

KristineAsselin Great portal book, ANY WHICH WALL by our
very own @laurelsnyder. At least I'd consider it portal...or maybe wish?
Laurel? #mglitchat -9:54 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AnshaKotyk @rachelnseigel I haven't heard of 100 Cupboards
#mglitchat -9:54 PM Jun 28th, 2012

KarenninaPosa @evermeg Winterling by Sarah Prineas. Very fun
read and good use of portals. Very organic and natural to both worlds.
#mglitchat -9:54 PM Jun 28th, 2012

yes. #MGLitChat -9:56 PM Jun 28th, 2012

#billandted #mglitchat -9:58 PM Jun 28th, 2012

Repeating the same day, like 11 Birthdays by Wendy Mass, the girl's bday
repeats. #mglitchat -10:00 PM Jun 28th, 2012
KarenninaPosa Portal samples: laundry chute, pond, hippo
mouth, book, rabbit hole... #mglitchat -10:00 PM Jun 28th, 2012
AniProf Still, plot devices such as time travel, or portals,
need to have limits, boundaries. Gives characters obstacles to overcome.
