Vanessa Carlisle’s writing is grounded in her loves: revolutionary artists and thinkers, old libraries, motley cities, living bodies—all complex, dangerous, gorgeous, curious. She writes essays, articles, short stories, flash fiction, and her first novel, A Crack in Everything, is now available through Amazon and Barnes and Noble.com. (click icons below!)
Vanessa co-authored I Was My Mother’s Bridesmaid: Young Adults Talk About Thriving in a Blended Family (Wildcat Canyon Press, 1999) with her sister Erica Carlisle.
