Reproduction Stories

A book of metaphors.

(free download of complete novel at jassrichards.com) Rev and Dylan return from their Blasphemy Tour to discover that Canada has adopted the Parent Licence Act: people who wish to become parents must apply for, and meet certain requirements before being granted, a licence. What if? After all, we require hairdressers and plumbers to be licensed. Dylan, freelance journalist, investigates, interviews, and observes; Rev, loose cannon, solves an 'illegal fertilization' mystery. They both occasionally get stoned and silly, and deal with a baby wolf who has adopted them.

This is a dystopian novel about people who can't fall in love, only forced to have children due to the government. There is no marriage, and you can't keep your children, until Annabeth and Blake come along. The government selects a man and a woman every month to get together and have a baby. Then, after 9 months, the woman gives birth to the child. Then, she gives the child to the government and the government assigns a care giver to the child. The care giver can't be chosen to have a baby because she or he has already done it 5 times, or they couldn't do it in the first place. Special thanks to @frostune for making this amazing cover!!

It's the worst time in the nation's history of reproductive laws for someone like Katherine, who doesn't want a child, to learn she's pregnant. In this environment, not having a child will be a challenge. Katherine isn't afraid of a challenge. 29 years later... It's probably the worst possible time in the nation's history of reproductive laws for Millie - well, for someone like Millie - to decide she wants to be pregnant. Getting pregnant requires government approval, and cheating the system means imprisonment in a mysterious facility known as Exile. In this environment, a pregnancy for someone like Millie is all but impossible. Millie doesn't believe in "impossible."

In a distant future where making babies no longer requires sexual intimacy, men and women are kept apart. The Church of the Originators has rewritten the Adam and Eve story to provide divine support for this social system. However, when Andrew Epsilon (8) finds himself attracted to a female insurgent, an heretical notion, things get interesting.
