A perpetual student and champion for human rights, and inter-religious peace and reconciliation, Andrew Bowen created Project Conversion in 2011, a year-long personal immersion into the culture, practices, beliefs, and rituals of 12 belief systems from around the world as a personal intervention after years of animosity toward faith. His fiction and essays splash the murky waters of religion and spirituality, and have appeared in over a dozen venues like decomP, Prick of the Spindle, Pulp Metal Magazine, and Charlotte Viewpoint.
