Frozen in Time — Sharon Ricklin Jones

Imagine what it might be like after taking a nice hot shower, to open the curtain and find yourself in another dimension in time and space. Everything and everyone you ever knew â€" is gone. That is exactly what happened to me - Ripley Tremont. One minute I'm drying off with a soft, fluffy towel, the next â€" I've traveled far into the future and end up in a strange new world. Worse yet, this particular planet remains locked in a state of perpetual winter - and not like the wimpy earth winters I was used to either. Being outside for more than a few minutes is downright hazardous, unless you're into becoming an ice sculpture. Which I sort of was, for a while… As if being transported to a frozen world wasn't bad enough, I've learned that I'm residing within the only livable place on the planet, and, it just happens to be a prison! The guards are androids that seem far too human, and some of the convicts are sinister extraterrestrial beings, but all the weirdness aside â€" I guess things could be worse â€" at least I'm alive. There are a couple of humans here, brothers no less, and they're as different as night and day. Strangely enough, they've told me I need to write a book about my experience here so we can send it back in time. So here it is… By the way, the future is amazing! Wish you were here!
