LUNA by G.W. Perriwils

G.W. Perriwils is actually two people, being the pseudonym used for collaborations between Huntsville, Alabama writers, Georgette Perry and William J. Wilson.

Born in 1930, Georgette Perry has lived in Alabama all her life. She writes: “In 1971, after eighteen years in a chemistry lab, I dropped out and became a middle-aged hippie. I’ve had poetry in many literary magazines but except for a few confession stories, ‘Luna’ was my first fiction.”

William J. Wilson, whom Perry describes as “the right-brained half of G.W. Perriwils,” was born in 1929 and grew up in Memphis, Tennessee. Since 1960 Wilson has lived in Huntsville, participating actively in NASA’s quest for the moon. A computer scientist by profession, he has written light and serious verse as well as fantasy and science fiction.

G.W. Perriwils’ most recent story, “Bedlam V” in Owlflight, deals with mad life forms sequestered to safe houses scattered through the galaxy. It struck me while reading “Luna” that not too many years ago this story would have been considered science fiction as well as fantasy. Instead, it is fantasy within a contemporary framework, and proof that a high tech society is no barrier to the supernatural.
