Lance E Nevis

Lance Nevis, a popular best-selling Oregon author of delightful children's books. He writes under the pen name of "Big Red Chicken.tm." His children’s books are unique as reads and combo color books. Lance is the owner and Founder of Animal Rain Productions as he began writing and publishing children’s books as a way to give back and support children “touched” by autism. He has many published colorful fun books with vibrant colors, fun characters that rhyme, and tells stories from his childhood.

“I was born in Sacramento in 1964, and I had long dreamed about doing something to make a difference. I have always had an artistic side playing music, singing, and writing my whole life. I hope that these books will help raise money and awareness for the fight against autism. My first book is titled “Animal Rain,” published in 2007, since then, I founded and started my own publishing company called “Animal Rain Productions.” All my books are available online on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and my new official website.”

“See, on a fishing trip some years ago, a little boy was running up and down the shore, insisting that I was “Big Red Chicken,” TM. His Dad said, “Son, you don’t know him well enough to call him that.” The boy then said, “No Dad, that’s Big Red Chicken, TM!” Since then, it has stuck. So I hired me an attorney and now own the trademark name, Big Red Chicken. “I continue to believe in my dream that one day these stories will be in the hands of many and bring joy and smiles to both young and old!"

Lance writes and publishes all his books to bring people together and to instill and open children's imaginations! A house painter by day, Lance has five kids of his own, pets, and when he's not working he enjoys fishing on the 'Mighty Rogue River' and spending time with family. He resides in Southern Oregon.
