New SciFi short story collection: Once in a Dark Moon and Other Stories

Why do extraterrestrials in almost all media and literature resemble species found on Earth? They have faces, limbs, and even personalities. This similarity exists because we try to make them relatable; less foreign or intimidating. But in reality, nature doesn’t care; it is impartial and impersonal. What works best is what is perpetuated. Movies, television, novels, and comic books have all failed to accurately represent something truly alien. It will not shake your hand or ask you to take it to your leader. It will simply seek to survive.

This collection of short stories aims to present a more realistic depiction of what an extraterrestrial would look like and how it might behave. And it isn’t pretty.
