I first came across this story in a horror/supernatural collection when I was about 12. The same one that introduced me to Lovecraft. Just looking at the title I wondered what this pan was. Obviously you used it to collect gods, but how did it work? Seemed like a cool idea, a way of gathering your own pantheon. “I’m going god panning, mom. I’ll be back for dinner.” Hours spent scooping up gods and carefully examining them then tossing away the ones that were too small. Perfect, only the great gods are good enough for my pan. When I actually sat down to read it I kind of preferred my idea.

The other day my local classical station played Stravinsky's The Right of Spring and some of the more chaotic, dissonant bits made me think of this story.

Little known fact; his half-brother, Demigod Dan, was more of an “autumn”.
