My name is Alyssa and I am co-moderating this group with Julie. I am thirty-four and just
started back to school after 15 years to become a hospice nurse. I
have three kids and am newly married to the love of my life--my
highschool sweetheart--after twenty years apart. Immediately
following high school I attended the University of Pittsburgh and
majored in fiction writing. Currently most of my work is creative non-fiction or memoir.
