The Latin Sub: Impure Thoughts, and One Man’s Definition of Mortal Sin

Steven McBrearty grew up in San Antonio, Texas, in one of those big, rollicking Catholic families so common in the 1960s. On any given day, there might be games of pitch and catch in the hallway or tackle football in the back bedroom. He moved to Austin to attend the University of Texas and has lived in Austin ever since. He has published more than 35 short stories, humor pieces, and non-fiction articles and has received several honors for his writing. His story collection, ＂Christmas Day on a City Bus,＂ was published in 2011 by McKinney Press. He has two grown children and four lovely grandchildren.
