Welcome to The Gray Man Writes, our little haunted corner of the Internet. ("Haunted" in the metaphorical sense, of course, since Gray's alter ego is a famous South Carolina ghost.) We're glad you're here, and we hope you like it enough to come back!
Who is the "Gray Man"?
Gray Rinehart writes science fiction, fantasy, assorted nonfiction, and the odd song. Or odd songs.
He is also the "Anti-Candidate," available as a write-in vote for any elective office, anywhere.
The "Gray Man" is a ghost, and Gray's alter ego. Check out The Legend of the Gray Man to find out more about the original "GrayMan" of Pawleys Island, South Carolina, or watch this segment of Unsolved Mysteries.
