HawaiiWith fierce courage, intimacy and candor, Gavin Harrison, author of Petals and Blood: Stories, Dharma and Poems of Ecstasy, Awakening and Annihilation opens up about his life providing a combination of page-turning personal stories with poems that inspire and awaken the soul. Harrison, who originally hails from South Africa, grew up gay in a deeply divided country. He dealt with pervasive sexual abuse and has lived with HIV for over half of his life. Through years of meditation, service and healing, he has lived a life full of compassion and his book truly evokes this. He is a true inspiration and has lovingly dedicated his newest book Petals and Blood to the orphaned and vulnerable children of Africa. Harrison will donate five dollars from the sale of every undiscounted book purchased via his website to The Woza Moya Project and Group of Hope in South Africa. Both organizations provide support to those affected by HIV, AIDS and poverty, an initiative that is near and dear to Harrison's heart. A recent Indiegogo campaign has already proved the success of this fundraising effort, as Petals and Blood was the second highest funded book to-date on this funding platform.
