In the quiet town of Burrington, the orchards are alive with secrets, and the air carries a hum that few can hear. Anabeth thought she knew her home, her family, and herself. Until the orchard began to remember what she had long forgotten. A single apple, a fragment of self stolen, and journals buried beneath gnarled roots set in motion a chain of mysteries that twist through time and memory.

In the quiet town of Burrington, the orchards are alive with secrets, and the air carries a hum that few can hear. Anabeth thought she knew her home, her family, and herself. Until the orchard began to remember what she had long forgotten. A single apple, a fragment of self stolen, and journals buried beneath gnarled roots set in motion a chain of mysteries that twist through time and memory. As the trees watch and the wind whispers, Anabeth must navigate a town that does not forgive, a family that forgets, and a presence at the edge of the orchard that feels human and yet something far older, far stranger. The Withering Orchard is a haunting short story that invites readers into the eerie, cursed world of 1819 Burrington. With each page, the line between memory and reality blurs, secrets linger in shadows, and the orchard remembers everything. Discover the town that refuses to let go and follow the threads that will lead you into the first novel of the Where Time Can't Exist series,Until Time Remembers.
Makitia Thompson is a multi-genre storyteller whose work blends poetic intensity with the raw honesty of documentary-style fiction. Whether writing haunting character studies, time-bending novels, or intimate poetry collections, she gravitates toward the places where emotion fractures and truth demands to be seen. Her stories often unravel the quiet ache beneath survival, the complicated weight of memory, and the beauty that emerges from brokenness. As the founder of Minds In Design, Thompson explores the intersections of literature, visual art, and immersive world-building. Her oil and acrylic paintings mirror the emotional pulse of her books, creating a bridge between image and narrative that deepens the impact of her work. Originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, she began writing at age eleven and has spent more than a decade shaping stories that challenge, unnerve, and invite readers to confront themselves with empathy. Across poetry and fiction, Thompson's work asks one enduring question: What does it mean to reclaim your voice after the world has tried to rewrite it?
