So excited to see all of these stories out in the world, and delighted to have one of my own included! I dug into my nerdy fascination with flowers and pollinators for this one, with a heavy dose of my lifelong love of all things Twilight Zone.
You’ll find “An Impossible Desert Flower” in Open Ended Threat, and stories from a bunch of my favorite writers in all four volumes of the Cave Creek series, including two from Jason A. Adams!
Cave Creek, Nevada—Where the Unexpected Meets the Real World
In present day Cave Creek, a powerful and dangerous current flows beneath the town’s peaceful and prosperous surface.
But now, portals to other timelines appear and disappear in the desert and rocks around town. Sometimes the portals open only for seconds, other times long enough to threaten lives.
The stories in Open Ended Threat recount the stories of those who slip through from the future or the past and explain how the residents keep the town’s secrets.
