This is only the opinion and suggestions of the reviewer and it is still up to the author of this piece to consider this review as a corrective action or otherwise.

*Reading* THE STORY

When a red quartz relic is found, Miss Harris is on the hunt to find out where it came from and what it was used for.

*Smile* WHAT I LIKED

I liked the ending, because I was totally lost and the ending gave the vinyettes context.

*Star* POV NARRATION/TENSE

This is told in the third person omniscient in 3 vinyettes that tie-in together. Good job with narration. Past tense is used appropriately.

*Star* DIALOGUE

There's a good blend of dialogue and narration. Dialogue tags are used appropriately.

*Star* DESCRIPTIONS

There's enough to set the scenes. I liked: "As you know, during a total lunar eclipse, the Earth moves between the sun and the moon and cuts off the moon's light supply, the sun. When this happens, the moon's surface takes on a reddish glow instead of going completely dark." - it's a very succient description of a lunar eclipse that's easy to understand and visualize in the reader's imagination.

*Star* SETTING

TIME: ancient times and modern day
PLACE: college setting and outdoors

This is something that is clarified for the reader.

*Star* CHARACTERS

Miss Harris is the main character

In that she does the research to offer a viable theory for the red quartz. *Thumbsup*

*Star* MECHANICS

I did not spot any spelling mistakes. I might suggest a minor edit for WDC tags.
Currently: 100,000 years font:verdana}older than the I would correct the tag.

*Star* PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS

I think the title fits with the theme of the "moon" but I would clarify how worm fits in the story. The opening engages the reader. I enjoyed how the vinyettes came together in the end.
