Working with the Seasons
Spring has finally arrived in my area after teasing us and playing out weather patterns that were frustrating to say the least.
These stories, though anecdotal, offer a fascinating glimpse into the mysterious and often perplexing nature of our universe. In this article, we delve into some of the most intriguing accounts of people who assert they have journeyed to alternate dimensions.
Going into March, we had no snow cover, little subsoil moisture, and the temperatures were quickly rising. Everything looked like we would have an early spring and a good planting season. Then the rain happened.
Just as farmers were starting to get in the fields, the weather switched, and we got dumped on with rain. After the rain, the temperatures cooled off and we got sporadic rains that kept the ground saturated and cold. I had gotten about a third of my garden planted in early May but wasn’t able to get anything else planted.
This past weekend I finally got back into the garden. I tilled and planted the rest of it and checked what I had already planted only to discover that the seeds had rotted in the ground from too much moisture. I had to replant everything, but my garden is done, only a month late. Maybe, in another dimension, I got my garden planted on time and everything is growing beautifully.

As I finished planting my garden, I looked at my crab apple tree just past the edge of my garden. In a beautiful bloom, the tree is a reminder that the seasons and weather constantly change but perseverance pays off. Whether gardening, growing trees, or writing novels, nothing happens overnight and there are days, weeks, and months where it seems like nothing happens, but each little bit adds to the whole. With my next novel, Dimensions: Second Wave being released on June 25th it feels like years of work are compressing down into a couple weeks. Check out below for a first look at Dimensions: Second Wave.
About Leif J. Erickson
Leif J. Erickson is a science fiction and fantasy author from a small farming community in west central Minnesota. Using his time wisely when he was a farmer, Leif developed many ideas, characters, and storylines to create over fifty unique first drafts and outlines for stories. From his start in a small town school, to college at North Dakota State University, back to his family farm, then to the bright lights of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and back to his small farming town, Leif has always had a love of writing.
When Leif isn’t writing he can be found with his wife hiking in state parks, canoeing local lakes and rivers, exploring local and regional ghost towns, experiencing museums, or simply reading or hanging out with friends and family. Leif draws on the local nature and ecology to find inspiration for his writing while he also asks what’s possible for technology and the human race, weaving them together for amazing stories that will stay with the reader for years to come. Leif looks forward to having many novel and story releases in the years to come.
