Timeless is my novel about karma, past lives, and reincarnation. I love Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Drama, and Comedy so I blended all those genres into my novel. I also set out to write a really deep and profound love story, since I think 99.99% of romance novels are crap and I can't find a single one worth reading.
I used, Journey of Souls: Case Studies of Life Between Lives by Michael Newton as an outline when creating the afterlife in my book. I also listened to people’s personal stories about out-of-body and near-death experiences. The title of the book is inspired by The Airborne Toxic Event song with the same name.
Summary
The afterlife isn’t nearly as great as we expect it to be. The angels and spirit guides act like a bunch of stoners who are always high on gods’ (there is more than one) love. Insecurities, anxieties, and traumas stick with you. You can’t escape yourself, no matter how many times you get high off of gods’ love for you. You still hate yourself and drive your soulmate away with your annoying habits.
Setting
In Timeless, all the layers of heaven are named after, and have the same vibrational energies, as the planets in our solar system. The astrological vibes are even stronger in a dimension where everyone and everything is pure energy.
The concept of a heaven composed of many layers dates back to ancient Mesopotamia. The concept also exists in Hinduism Islam, Judaism and Christianity-although the different religions differ over how many layers there are and what each layer's function is.
Some Ancient and Renaissance astronomers believe that the planets in our solar system were all rotating around the Earth. At the time they only knew about Mercury, Venus, the Moon, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. The layers of heaven were believed to exist up in the sky, around the Earth, just like the planets. See the woodcuts below. We now know of the existence of Pluto (planet or not), Neptune, and Uranus. We also now know that the Sun does not orbit the Earth. But the concept of ten different layers of heaven with strong vibrational energies makes for a great story setting.

The first word is supposed to be "Marshans" not "Martians". They are passed over humans who live on Mars, the third layer of heaven. They are not little green aliens.
