Whatnot John D Moore

Melancholy apples. Wisdom-dispensing extraterrestrial felines. Intense premonitions. Frustrated encounters with the divine.


These are among the figures and situations found in the pages of Whatnot, a collection of very short stories, comics, and drawings that mix the humorous, the melancholy, the divine, the mundane, and the absurd. This is author John D. Moore's debut collection of fiction and art, expressing an often bizarre view of this world and others across 22 stories and drawings.
