My short story, “Bravo Tunnel,” Has been published by Ten Thirty-one Books. New technology can change the world. It can also destroy lives. Smart phone batteries explode. Three-D printers create undetectable guns. Operating systems leave security holes unpatched. When four high-school students get illegal technology upgrades that feed data straight into their brains, they start…
I just got my rejection letter for “Bravo Tunnel” from the Writers of the Future Contest. Apparently, they are no longer calling “Quarter-finalists” by that name.

No finalist award for my novelette, “Bravo Tunnel” in the 4th Quarter WOTF contest. The link to the finalists is here. I have not received word on how I’ve placed yet. I can at least hope that I made it to the quarter-finalist level again. Keep watching for more information. – Brennan Harvey
