Santa Clarita Author Rich Samuels Honored by Noted Reader's Organization

SANTA CLARITA, Calif. - May 13, 2014 - PRLog -- Rich Samuels, author of My Life at the Bottom of the Food Chain, a darkly funny novel for young adults, has been honored with the Book Readers Appreciation Group (B.R.A.G.) Medallion.

The book has been judged by a panel of experienced B.R.A.G. readers worldwide as “well worth a reader’s time and money.”

Samuels’ book is a tale about Alexander, a thirteen year old so frightened of bullying that he nearly becomes a bully himself.

Featuring a lively cast of characters that will seem authentic to anyone “who’s been there,” My Life at the Bottom of the Food Chain is a non-stop adventure that manages to be both thought-provoking and just plain fun.

“My Life at the Bottom of the Food Chain is an example of the quality literature that often goes unrecognized in the mainstream because it’s self-published,” said Geri Clouston, President, indieBRAG, LLC., “We are very proud of all of the titles chosen by our readers.”

On average, only ten percent of books submitted for recognition by B.R.A.G. are accepted into the program and promoted on the website at http://www.bragmedallion.com.
