A Red and Gray Giveaway

If you enjoy free books like I do, you have the chance to win a copy of A Gray Life, now through July 25th.

The giveaway is featured on , so click here to activate the good luck monkeys!

As an added bonus, I'm giving away three e-copies of A Gray Life from my blog. To enter, all you have to do is email me or comment below. Tell me about the first book you read and why it was special to you. 

The first chapter book I read was from The Babysitter Club series. I can't remember the exact book, but I can remember the static joy that came after. When I finished the last page, I jumped up from the couch and grabbed my mom, full of the largest sense of accomplishment my 2nd grade self had ever held.

Good luck, readers!

Two Exciting Developments

Recently, Obsolution was selected as one of four Honorable Mentions for both the 2014 Diverse Writers and Diverse Worlds Grants.

The jurors said of the story:

We enjoyed your piece very much. One of our jurors said, "Engaging and addictive. I didn't want to stop reading."

Read Obsolution for free via the Wattpad website, or by downloading the Wattpad app to your phone (works much like Amazon's Kindle app, and thousands of free books are offered).

Also, today I received the link to a 4/5 star review of A Gray Life from Horror Cult Films (HCF) UK (read it here: http://horrorcultfilms.co.uk/2014/11/a-gray-life-by-red-harvey-book-revew/). 

Not only that, but HCF editor Stephanie Andrusjak expressed a positive response to my work, and suggested I query Tor. I've queried many a publishing house, but I've yet to try Tor. Today is as good a day as any for a fresh query...!

All in all, a good day :D

Here's what Black Rose Reviewer has to say about A Gray Life:

"This story is brilliant. It should have more readers than its got. This is for someone who wants a Sci-Fi Scare. This will make you cringe, the way it was worded I’m an impressed with the descriptiveness, it sometimes can get graphic and gross you out, but that’s why it’s great."

Book Description: 

Society has crumbled. Loved ones are lost daily. Can an empath and two children survive a violent world filled with crime, vigilantes, and strange things found in the dark? 

To pass the time, a twelve-year-old boy chronicles his experiences as a captive in a deranged man's basement, all the time wondering about the fate of his friend, Ashley Heard. 

Ashley Heard witnesses her father's murder at the hands of home invaders and is forced to flee a decaying city overrun by mutants. Ashley befriends the empath Juniper Jones, a woman that helps her escape the city. 

Despite their hellish surroundings, three people manage to touch each other's lives briefly, but for the better.
