“The Reason”,  was first published in Glimpses of Insanity, Rainstorm Press, 2012. It has now been published again in  the Horrified Press anthology, Fractured Realms released on June 15, available on Amazon August 21  ALL PROFITS FROM FRACTURED REALMS GOES TO THE AUTISM TRUST.

 “The Reason” opening paragraph:

Things always happen to guys from the Middle East. Religious things—check it out. Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, all those martyrs and apostles. All from the Holy Lands where bushes catch on fire and tell you to take off your shoes and people get swallowed by fish and live to tell about it. You’d think it would be different in Oklahoma City, especially if your name is Joseph Gavin and you were adopted by Irish Baptists who barely even go to church. But no, you’re still from the Middle East, and weird things still happen to you because that’s the way things work whether you like it or not.

All according to God’s plan.
