I am not an author of novels, but I have read a lot of time-travel novels. Let me talk about my experience in reading novels. I hope it can help you! ~
The beginning of popular time-travel novels:
In general popular time-travel novels, before the protagonist travels through time, he will clearly explain his identity, name, family situation, etc. in modern times. Writing articles. The advantage of writing this way is that when readers first read this novel, their thinking will be clear and will not cause confusion. At least they will not feel a little baffled. In addition, the plot of certain events is interspersed with time travel.
Yeah. . . . . . . . . . Let me give you an example. My character is a girl named Mo Xiaoqi, who is in high school at the age of eighteen. Time-travel incident: being swept away by water while swimming
Example (the writing is rather poor, don’t dislike it...)
In the hot summer, the sun makes people look like castrated grass.
Mo Xiaoqi blew the electric fan and looked at the thick pile of homework for the second year of high school. He suddenly felt that his summer vacation was no different from going to school.
"Little beauty, as long as you say one word, I will give you a lifetime..." The mobile phone on the table vibrated buzzingly, and then the ringtone of her favorite song came from the mobile phone. She weakly picked up her phone, holding the black pen she used for homework in her hand and turning it around carelessly.
"Hey..."
"Hey! Xiaoqi, come out and swim!" Listening to the lively female voice on the phone, Mo Xiaoqi rolled his eyes. It was her The voice of my best friend Zhou Xiaohe.
"No, it's so hot. Why are you going? I still have a bunch of homework to do."
"Why are you so bored? You work all day long. Besides, your parents are no longer living in the same house. Don’t you feel lonely alone? Come out now, or we will break off our relationship!”
Mo Xiaoqi’s mouth twitched and he nodded helplessly on the phone. He nodded and said: "Okay, okay. You wait for me downstairs at my house..."
"Isn't that great? I'll wait for you downstairs at your house in ten minutes~"

-------------------------Then the heroine was swept away while swimming, and so on. (I won’t type them one by one)
Actually, if you really can’t figure out how to write the beginning and it’s a headache, there is one method that is the most effective, and that is copying!
Find a beginning of a time travel article that you think is good, imitate how others write it first, practice more, and your own style will come out. Many things in the world start with imitation and then innovation~ (a little off topic...
The above are personal suggestions~
