Set in very much real instances of life today, Just Because Stories are brief clippings from the lives of various individuals; different in every aspect at the face-value, and yet find common ground in their inevitable confrontations with harsh reality.
These tales hope to explore the curious, desperate, hopeless, lustful, or even the sinister and sly sides of human nature, and use discovery, conformity, compliance, resignation, and revenge as a medium. These tales will leave you with feelings punctuated by thoughtfulness, unease, aggravation; perhaps even pure frustration.
