Welcome to Aleebrunobooks.com.  This website is a forum for lovers of books—those who read them and those who write them.  I’m Lee Bruno and write under the name of A. Lee Bruno to distinguish me from a bunch of other writers out there.  My special interests are books that illustrate the beauty and versatility of the English language and include both fiction and technical writing that reads like well-written fiction.  These are books that are astounding in their clarity and lyricism like Robert Hazen’s  Story of Earth, the First 4.5 Billion Years from Stardust to Living Planet.   Hazen is the quintessential scientist who writes books you can’t put down.  He set a new standard for technical writing as I was starting to transition from technical writing to fiction.  

 As a fiction writer, I can share my experience writing four novels and a number of short stories and what I learned along the way.  Because of my long history as a published author of non-fiction and even more time as an avid reader, I’m willing to try new things.  My recently published book, The Wachs Family Daughters—Book 1, is a hybrid that starts as a nonfiction account of the migration of my German ancestors and then continues as a historical fiction account that allowed new facts to become part of their story.   I wrote this as a service to my family, but it is today a new means for fiction writers to expand into a new arena—writing fiction that tells a story around family genealogy records and is bound by those facts, something that Google says does not now exist. Can fictional writers find a new market by blending fact and fiction to bring life to the genealogy records of our ancestors?  I think so.  Most of my career was spent writing documents to the specifications of my client using research data. It takes imagination, good research skills, and time, but it is doable.

To summarize: the purpose of this website is to talk about books and writing and sharing innovations that move storytelling into new dimensions.  We can start by sharing the wonder that all English books in all the libraries of the world were written using only 26 letters. Or we can share the worst book written by our favorite authors.   We can debate the villainy of the publishing industry or the impact of Amazon on both writing and reading.  You can ask questions about my books, share your writing challenges with me, or complain about unreliable narrators.  (They must not trick the reader.)

About the Author

This is part bio and part personal sharing, so everyone is fairly warned.  I am a feminist.  I have no reverence for publishing genres.  Fiction writing is an art and art is not bound by rules.
