    Alyssa Novak

    My name is Alyssa, I'm born and raised in California. I have a daughter and am engaged. I am currently going to college to be a preschool/infant teacher. I started writing as a pass time and a way to cope, beginning with poems but recently decided to take it a step further and begin with short stories and have now decided to attempt taking the passion further.
