Louella's collection of award-winning stories is published by Brown Fedora Books and is available for download at BrownFedoraBooks or through PayPal for $12 (see below).
Full Bloom is alive with lucid tales told in a deft voice, grown out of the observations of a sharp eye and a knowing heart. Bryant cuts right to the things that really matter: grief and abandonment and the possibility of explosive rage and the essential hope of healing. She takes us into the lives of people trapped, desirous, bewildered, persevering. Ordinary people. People you might know very well indeed. People whose stories you absolutely have got to read.” ~ Jeanne Larsen, author of the Silk Road trilogy
Louella's nonfiction book While in Darkness There is Light won the 2007 Southwest Writers Award for nonfiction and follows the friendship of five American men who became expatriates in Australia during the Vietnam War.

I'm easy to reach. Follow me on Twitter find me on Facebook, comment on my blog. I've just ordered a netbook, so I'll be online most of my waking hours (well, sometimes half awake). Let's talk books, inspiration, passions and anything about the writing life. I'm all ears (and eyes).
