The Past Present and Future has been my dream project to work on. It was a book that I spent years developing ideas for. After finally writing the book, I made spin-offs and sequels.
The characters:
Kate Cornelia: The protagonist. A shy 20-year-old woman that has had a hard time moving on from the pain of her sad past. She seeks a potentially happy future with her new bestie, Penelope.
Penelope Takahata: The deuteragonist. A woman that's around Kate age that Kate meets in college. Penelope's a very caring woman who grows a quick attachment to Kate. She quickly gets a crush on Kate.
Mr. Gorshin: The main antagonist. A businessman that runs an organization that's supposed to help grieving kids. However, Mr. Gorshin is more interested in getting rich and becoming the next mayor.
Tara Lola: Penelope's childhood friend who was a popular cheerleader. Tara cares a lot about Penelope, so she starts getting jealous when Penelope starts spending her time with Kate.
Emily: A close friend of Penelope and Tara. She is obsessed with following the rules, so she strives to become a member of law enforcement. Despite being a stickler for the rules, she has a kind heart.
Lacy Jay: Kate's childhood friend who was like a sister to her. Kate has a hard time moving on with her life without her. An imaginary version of Lacy haunts Kate in her dreams.
Robert: Kate and Lacy's mysterious neighbor who went on to become Mr. Gorshin's assistant. Kate blames him for Lacy's disappearance, while Robert appears to be going through a guilt trip.
Vincent Jay: Lacy's father. A businessman and scientist who becomes obsessed with trying to find a way to bring Lacy back. He thinks of Kate as a second daughter.
Mayor Lloyd Cliff: The current mayor of New York City. He feels that he isn't as good of a mayor as he should be. Mr. Gorshin wants him to step down, so he can become the new mayor.
Brandon Takahata: Penelope's older, immature brother. Brandon strives to become a surfer, but he's too impatient and lazy to train.
