Charissa has always had a love of books. 

She's loved them all.  Beautiful ones, pretty ones,

ones that made you think, ones

that helped you get lost, and every

other one in between.  Writing has always

been a struggle for Charissa until she was

diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer. 

Once diagnosed, Charissa found it

therapeutic to blog and write.  She started writing for

The Young Survival Coalition followed by writing for

Her View from Home.  Her goal in life is to find joy and create joy no matter the circumstances.  Through the push of a few friends and her support system, Charissa started writing and couldn't stop.
