Love, Werewolves & Algorithms is a collection of five love themed, valentines day [in]appropriate short stories intended to be enjoyed in a single afternoon. These stories have previously been featured in print anthologies, podcasts, on Public Radio International and have gone on to win the Three Minute Futures writing contest.
In Subject SocialScene Alert! next year’s social network predicts and ‘solves’ your relationship problems before they happen.
In The Taste of Soured Causality the desire for romantic second chances in a modern, magic rich world is complicated by scheming D’Jinn.
In Little Blue Pills ‘natural male enhancement’ meets transhumanism.
In Sponsor a 12 step support group for werewolves collides with a marriage.
And finally in Ignoring the Overlay teenage infatuations and networked augmented reality make for an awkward first date.
Praise for J.M. Perkins's work
"With his restless imagination and incisive intellect, J. M. Perkins brings something almost wholly unique to the table of genre fiction. All of his work, even his fantasy tales and gaming excursions, edge into science fiction of a distinctive stripe -- because his preferred science is the 'dismal science' of economics. His acute perceptions of the transactions and exchanges of everyday existence imbues virtually everything he writes with a revealing new perspective on the complex Über-Game that we call Human Life."
- Steve Dandois - Canyon Design Group
“One of our favorite writers…”
-Robert Heminger - The Avalon Game Company
"J.M. Perkins is superlative."
- Brett Jackson (Creator, BEDTIME FOREVER)
Love Werewolves Algorithms edition by JM Perkins Brett Jackson Dorothy Beaver Literature Fiction eBooks
Perkins' inventive short fiction is a blast: it's fresh and contemporary, riffing on the quirks of modern life like social media algorithms, "life enhancement" drugs, and 12-step support groups. He can be inventive and experimental (like "Subject: SocialScene Alert," a short story cast in the form of an automatically-generated marketing email from a social media app that knows way, way too much about its users' personal lives). Yet Perkins' stuff also has a quality of the timelessly classic. In short-shorts like "Little Blue Pills," Perkins' tightly contained and sharply honed wit brings to mind the sardonic master of ultra-brevity, Fredric Brown. And Perkins' inventive forays into contemporary fantasy evoke the cream of the crop from John W. Campbell's classic UNKNOWN magazine. In the wonderfully titled "The Taste of Soured Causality," Perkins imagines a modern-day world where Djinns and elementals are flaunted at theme parties in ostentatious displays of wealth. In "Sponsor," Perkins devises a support group for werewolves. Captivating, creative, and often darkly satiric, these stories are fast, fun and worth your while.Product details
