The setting shapes the story

That was the challenge from U.K.-based Simone Press as it planned an anthology of new short stories, in which “the characters, plot and atmosphere [are] highly influenced by [the] setting, which . . . strongly affects the action, plot and direction of [the] story.”) The editors thought my “Beyond the Reef” met that criterion; it’s one of 29 such stories in “Selected Places,” just published as a $12.99 paperback or a $5.99 Kindle book (or for KindleUnlimited members, a free read), all at Amazon.
