“The God of Minor Troubles” by Megan Chee

“The God of Minor Troubles” by Megan Chee, narrated by Wil Welcome, friends. I'm Wil Wheaton, and it's Story Time.From a mortal's perspective, a god is a god. Omnipotence isn't really on a spectrum; it's pretty binary. The gods don't see it that way. From the moment humans dreamed them into existence, they've fought among themselves to determine which mortals they will hear, what responsibilities they have, and how they will be divided amongst the firmament. While mortals merely hope their prayers will be heard, it turns out that some of the gods answering them aren't particularly thrilled with their assignment.I am about to introduce you to one of those gods, who does not yet know that it's actually pretty major to be the god of minor troubles.
