Discover Cave Creek: Where the Unexpected Meets the Real World

We’re tickled to announce SP authors Jason A. Adams and Kari Kilgore both have stories in the new shared world series Cave Creek! Jason has two in Bitter Mountain Moonlight, and Kari has one in Open Ended Threat.

Kari dug into her nerdy fascination with flowers and pollinators for “An Impossible Desert Flower,” with a heavy dose of a lifelong love of all things Twilight Zone shared by everyone at Spiral Publishing.

For Jason’s two stories, “Writing the Past” and “Two Si’s for Sister Sally,” he called on his own memories of a landscape both beautiful and hellish, where life outdoors could kill a person. Or give them great opportunity. Both involve finding hope in the future.

Check out all four volumes of the Cave Creek series for wonderful stories for a bunch of our favorite authors!
