However, he does reach for a very sentimental end as he does in his other novels. In this book, Paul C. Markland, gives the reader inspiration to consider their own life, as well as their actions and connections to others. An exercise, everyone should consider doing, every so often. - Raymond Shook, M.A.Originally, "The Reason" was based on a true story. As a child, I always questioned "the reason" for my existence.

While writing this work, certain aspects of my childhood were brought to light. Aspects I hid for most of my life. Even my siblings had no idea.Based on the recommendation of my wife, I presented "The Reason" as a fictional story rather than a factual one. In the process, I wrote about the faith that I once preached. In the end, there was resolution. So I thought. With the advancements in technology also comes new insights. In the process of publishing this book, DNA has opened pandora's box. What I once thought was truth, is anything but the truth. Again, I am considering "The Reason"
