Aug. 4, 2011 - PRLog -- "I felt I had to do something. Since I write books, I decided to offer all my profits from my e-book "People In The Curtains" to the efforts of feeding the starving people of Somalia," Mr. Graves stated. "And I challenge other authors to do the same."

That just about sums it up. Mr. Graves is offering the money he earns from his $4.99 e-book, found at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1764 to the poor people in Africa. The two year drought in the eastern area of Africa has caused massive starvation, killing thousands of men, women and children. Many relief programs are sending in food, but they need help financing it. This is where the public comes in.

"People In The Curtains" was a finalist in the 2010 International Book Awards Contest, Young Adult Fiction Division. It is a story of a young boy who survives a serious illness, discovering he can now see faces from the beyond. His life is turned upside down when his mother is attacked and almost killed. As his moods change, so do the visitors from the other side, becoming more threatening and evil.

"Some people ask why I gave my book a PG rating. There's a few swear words in it and the crime scene is a little graphic. But anyone over thirteen shouldn't have a problem with it," Mr. Graves stated. "Other books like "Harry Potter" and "Twilight" should probably be rated PG as well, in my opinion."

Mr. M.T.Graves is now working on his second installment in his series. Hopefully to be released in 2012.
