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, and 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 transhumanism meets ‘natural male enhancement.’
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."
