Just a couple of updates:
I hope to have the next chapter of Earth Bond out sometime next week. I haven't had time to do any writing at all in the last week or so, and won't see any daylight until Friday.
Due to a lot of good suggestions, I'm revamping the "physics" of how temporal frames work in Shifters, mainly by working around the hard one year intermission between open windows that how I designed things created. That was too long, so I found a way to get it back to about once a month, which fits in much more smoothly with the planned plotline.
And here's your main character: Rafael de la Varga. Born and raised in the small town of A Guarda, Spain, which is right across the river from Portugal, he's currently living in America with his aunt and uncle after he was orphaned. The story begins after he's been living in a tiny town called Centerville, Nebraska for two years (FICTIONAL, where A Guarda is not, so don't try to look it up on a map), freshly graduated from high school and preparing to begin his career as a professional baseball player after being drafted right out of high school.
Rafael has a lot of potential, and it's been a lot of fun researching a European main character to learn the background of his home region and its history, which is rich and storied. I may not get everything exactly right, but it's not for lack of trying.
