The pattern of time is an unfathomable mystery to humankind. We live our lives striving forward, reaching for the next technology, the next horizon. Usually we find it, we are very successful at exploration and discovery. However, there is nothing new under the sun, civilizations rise and fall from within or without going unnoticed. Looking back at a planet lost it will be remembered that at one time or another there was existence. Can a message be sent through time? A message in a bottle if you will, to warn future civilizations about repeating the same mistake. There are those who believe it is possible, perhaps it has already happened.
I did not write Bulletproof Diva, although I kind of wish I had. Another Lisa Jones wrote that. Please see my blog on the challenges of being an author named Lisa Jones. I have been a journalist for 25 years, specializing in the Rocky Mountain West, but also covering crime, food, travel, spirituality, geese as pets, swamp coolers for cars and the hazards of dating biologists.
My writing has appeared in High Country News, Orion, Smithsonian, the New York Times Magazine, Tin House, National Public Radio, the Burlington (Vt.) Free Press, the Denver Post, the Christian Science Monitor and the Tico Times (in San Jose, Costa Rica, where I worked for a year.)
