With A Bullet by SK Waller Now Available

The second book, With A Bullet, of SK Waller's engrossing and fun rock and roll trilogy, Beyond The Bridge, is now available in both paperback and Kindle at Amazon. com.

With A Bullet begins in 1976 when newly-discovered blues artist Katy Clarke is brought to London to launch her career. The small town girl from Boulder, Colorado has no idea, however, that her subsequent success and fame will demand not only dedication and hard work, but also a hard look at what drives her. Familiar characters from Book One return to move the story toward its climactic finale in Book Three, With A Song.

Official Book Launch

K. Lynette Erwin, author of So Faithful a Heart and When Love Won't Die, appeared at the Stillwater Hasting's Books & Music to sign copies of the two-volume edition of her novel. The event was so successful, the manager told her it was the best local author book signing they'd hosted in the history of the store. A private reception followed at the home of the author. In her toast, Ms. Erwin offered her thanks to Deborah Butler, who donated the cost of the books in memory of her mother, Joye Ramsel, who had been working in earnest to promote the novel with the Bartlesville OK Mozart Festival when she passed in October. Artistic promotion was provided by Michael Broyles, photography by Lauren Weaver, cake by Frosted: The Bakery, and catering by The Vicar of Nibbly.

Alla Breve Books is proud to introduce our newest author, Dr. F. Bailey Norwood.

Dr. Norwood is an associate professor of agricultural economics at Oklahoma State University, where his career began in 2003. He received his Ph.D. in economics from North Carolina State University in 2001.

Dr. Norwood has published over thirty-four journal articles, many in the top agricultural economics and environmental economics journals. With colleague and friend Jayson Lusk, he has published an undergraduate textbook titled, Agricultural Marketing and Price Analysis, and a book on farm animal welfare titled, Compassion by the Pound.

His latest, forthcoming book, Matrona's Four Children, is an epic set in Russia during the reign of Catherine the Great and is set for publication in 2012 through Alla Breve Books. It is an exciting, meticulously researched novel with a riveting plot replete with suspense, powerful emotions, ambitious sociological and philosophical themes, and surprising, pleasant economic content.

It conjures powerful emotions and is friendly but challenging to all political and religious flavors.
