🎧 What if trauma was a time loop... and rhythm was the only way out?

"He wasn't trying to save the world. He was trying to survive it."

In a world where time doesn't heal all wounds, what happens when it fights back?

Dezmond, a beatmaker with a shattered past, stumbles upon a hidden frequency buried in the soul of the city. With every pulse, he unlocks a truth deeper than time itself.

🧠 Why I Wrote This Book

I didn’t grow up dreaming about time machines. I grew up trying to survive time itself.

This story came from pain — my own, and the kind I see in communities like mine every day. The kind that loops through generations until someone decides to break it.

Dezmond is that someone.

"He didn’t need a cape. He needed clarity."

📖 What Makes This Story Different?

Time Machine in the Hood is:

✅ An Afrofuturistic, urban sci-fi novella with real heart

✅ Focused on memory, rhythm, and healing

✅ Grounded in real places, real grief, real resistance

✅ Built on beats instead of bullets

"This isn't about time travel. It's about time healing."
