About Me
- Alice Garbarini Hurley
- Montclair, New Jersey
- I'm Alice and I've been writing for most of my life--first, in a little green five-year diary my friend Lorraine gave me for Christmas in 6th grade, then for newspapers, magazines, websites and companies. I've blogged here, often daily, since Feb. 2010, trying hard to write truthfully even when it's scary. My husband and I are now freelance writers, so sometimes still we can afford salmon for dinner and sometimes we can't. Our daughter (blog name Figgy) is an artist and scientist in cyanobacteria algae research. The teen we are raising as legal guardians but have loved as our own (code name Punch/Skippy/Spice/Spike) is in high school. Our days range from sunny to sad, successful, sweet or funny.

Do you listen to podcasts? The History Chicks did a couple in December about Emily Dickinson. Shattered a couple of myths for me.

Hope for young people always a safe bet as well as a good thing because they are growing and changing thru these events, and learning, even if it doesn’t seem like it and they are years from articulating it. Keeping them safe, and hoping, hoping, hoping…❤️
