Short Story Spotlight: The Color of the Sky

Time for another short story spotlight from my Reedsy.com collection!

The Color of the Sky was written in response to the following prompt:

Write a story about a character who tries to control their life down to the most minute detail — but has to learn to let go.

Prairie finds life a lot easier to deal with if she follows a highly detailed schedule that is planned down to the very last minute. She is dealing with a lot, and any deviation could send her into a state of panic. When a series of ominously positive emails begin to appear mysteriously in her inbox, Prairie has to make a choice--continue in her unhealthy patterns, or step outside and breathe.
