Drace (dracenines) | 7815 comments There are a couple of minor issues with the short story collection Have You Seen the Moon Tonight? by Jonathan Louis Duckworth (ISBN 9781685101046).

First: the title is incomplete. The full title is Have You Seen the Moon Tonight? and Other Rumors.

Second: the description is missing formatting. There needs to be a paragraph break between the sentences that start with "In Miami, an out of work contractor and his girlfriend..." and "These and other stories form..."

Finally: the original publication date is missing. It should be July 21, 2023.

Thanks for any and all help with this.

Thanks so much for correcting the title and original publication date. There's still a minor paragraph break error with the description - I've copy and pasted the correct description from Amazon below:



A 5,000-year-old warlock gets fired from his side-hustle as a stage magician at a South Beach strip club-and takes it personally. Henry David Thoreau discovers a sinister humanoid fungus buried under his bean field. A well-meaning long-haul trucker picks up an underage drifter at a Texas diner, not realizing he's the one in danger. After a world-ending plague, a survivor discovers a strangely well-maintained house populated by animate paper butterflies. In Miami, an out of work contractor and his girlfriend navigate an emergent apocalypse as something on the moon's surface drives everyone on Earth who sees it insane.

These and other stories form Jonathan Louis Duckworth's debut story collection, Have You Seen the Moon Tonight? The collection is comprised of 16 supernatural short stories in a shared universe. Many of the stories explore a kaleidoscope of possible world ending scenarios: the moon becoming a vector for madness, a book that infects and corrupts any writing it touches, the forgotten inhabitants of the ocean rising up to drown humanity's toxic empire, and language itself becoming a mind-blasting plague. These stories explore damaged and jaded people reconnecting with their lost humanity, or discovering the inhuman multitudes hiding beneath their skin.
