Editors

Christine Piesyk has 40 years behind her as a journalist, feature writer, investigative reporter, editor, and film/theater/arts critic. She brought her liberal New England activism to Tennessee several years ago, having completed a midlife undergraduate degree in community organizing and women's studies, and an MA in Interdisciplinary Arts (Topic: Alzheimer Disease); Thesis: Daughter of Dementia). She is currently an MFA/Creative Writing student at Goddard College, an active community and Red Cross volunteer, and a member of FreeThinkers for Peace and Civil Liberties. At varying times of my life she ended up flying in hot air balloons and gliders, canoeing and rafting white water, climbing Machu Picchu (after recovering from a serious back injury), fishing for Piranha on the Amazon, and hanging out of a plane over Cape Cod to photograph skydivers as they jumped. Keeps life interesting. She sees life as ongoing opportunities for both learning and adventure, with the best things still to come.
