So in other projects I've done I've found it fun to work in personal/family history in with the larger timeline (most notably in the TL where 1905 north America is ISOT'd to 2009 where I use my great great grandparents as a PoV for the story). This got me thinking that it would be kinda neat to see people come up with timelines where the POD is their birth...either they aren't born, are born early or late, or maybe born a different gender.

From there, you can just see where the butterflies take you. Could be pretty conservative and just allow small gradual changes to add up. Or you could let the changes happen faster.

Anyone interested?

I'm working on a basic TL in my head for my own birthday. I just haven't had a chance to type it up yet. I was born in August 1989, and have some fun ideas for ways to alter the timeline after that date. Differenent and more haphazard fall of the Soviet Union. German remaining divided. Bush Sr. becoming a two-term President pushing Clinton's presidency into the 2000s. Just to name a few ideas.
