About this ebook

The moon is rotating closer and closer to the earth like a clock counting down the seconds to our destruction. With only a year remaining until the catastrophic event, Earth’s scientists race to find a solution to save the planet. A couple struggles over the decision of trying to conceive a baby or not. A man fights with the young moon cultists who strip naked and rub the apples from his tree all over their bodies during their nightly ritual. Another man tries to reconcile with his son before their time runs out. What will happen to them and the rest of humanity?

JT Pearson

JT Pearson is possibly more myth than reality. It is widely believed that he has been around for thousands of years. Archeological digs have uncovered Grecian artwork that suggests that they prayed to him to cure ailments of the feet. Irish legend insists that JT Pearson is that movement in shadow that you’re not certain that you actually saw, or that image at the edge of your peripheral vision that vanishes when you turn toward it. In the upper Midwest of the United States people had claimed that they had several images of JT Pearson captured on film but they were all poor quality and eventually proven to be hoaxes. It is only recently that an artist rendering was discovered in the attic of an old convent that is believed to be authentic. President Richard Nixon had claimed before his death that JT Pearson was the specter that haunted his boyhood home, and quite possibly the reason that his mother left his father for a short time. Nestled among all of these legends and hearsay is the accusation that he is the author of this sight and responsible for the drivel that has been filling your head. Lawyers for JT Pearson advise that if you read his work you do so at your own peril and no form of compensation either monetary or otherwise will be offered for any injuries permanent or short term which are incurred within the pages of his stories. If you’d like to communicate with JT Pearson either burn a photograph of yourself and sprinkle the ashes into the wind at dusk or you may take the more conventional route at thehungryrobot2005@gmail.com P.S. look for novels coming in the near future. For now, please enjoy the many short stories that he has provided for you to read for free. Feedback is much appreciated.

    All Things Under the Moon

    All things human hang by a slender thread; and that which seemed to stand strong suddenly

    falls and sinks in ruins.

    I knew the so-called experts were lying to us. Everyone could see something strange was happening. The moon looked bigger in the sky every week. At first our world leaders refused to even address it, figuring they could just postpone dealing with our questions until they had some answers but that could only last so long. Then the spokespeople for industrialized nations furthered stall tactics by denying that there was anything unusual going on, politicians both conservative and liberal coming on TV and telling us that what we were dealing with was global mass hysteria – that we’d all convinced each other that there was something strange going on with the moon. Some of the older people here in the United States just chose to believe President Myer instead of thinking for themselves, trusting the soothing words that put them at ease, words that dripped from his lips like morphine from an IV, but the young people knew better. They weren’t so ready to trust. Finally, after months had passed, a spokesman for NASA addressed the world and came clean, confirming that it was true. The moon was getting increasingly closer to the earth. I just turned and looked at Grandma Kay after the broadcast. I didn’t have the heart to say it, that
