Author Alexander S. Brown Visits the Library on January 29

Meet a dynamic young author on Thursday, January 29, 2009 at the library! A Vicksburg native, author Alexander S. Brown will be in the Library Auditorium from 5:30 - 7:00 PM, giving an author talk about his new book, Traumatized. The book talk will be followed by a reception and book signing. Alexander Brown published his first novel, Sweet Dreams in 2003, when he was only eighteen. The story is in the horror-suspense genre and involves a twisting tale of terror set in the fictional Southern town of Havesnburg in 1935. His second novel, published when he was twenty-three, is a more complex novel that shows his increased maturity and writing style. Traumatized is a collection of fifteen fascinating tales on a variety of topics. The stories examine many subjects, from witches, demons and hell to a disturbing exploration of a new type of sushi that has bizarre effects on those who ingest it. Like many younger authors, Mr. Brown is using new technologies to publicize the publication of Traumatized. The book can be purchased at http://www.amazon.com/, http://www.barnesandnoble.com/ and http://www.borders.com/ and copies will be available for purchase at the book signing. He is currently publicizing his book on facebook.com and on his myspace page located at http://myspace.com/alexbrownhorrormaster.
