About
My BIO
My name is Rita D’Alessio I was born and raised in Newark, New Jersey. This story, "The Unforgettable Struggle", has been waiting for a long time in my head and one day I decided to sit down and write it. This is my first book. I now reside in Brick, New Jersey with my husband, John and my dog Princess. I have two daughters and two grandchildren.
I retired about fifteen years ago. I had time on my hands and started to paint. One day I decided to write this story about a battered woman. It is fiction, based on a truly brave woman. Now I do more writing and very little painting even though I still love to paint. I also like to read, knit, cook and occasionally do volunteer work. I wish when my book is released that people read it and realize what a problem Domestic Violence is around the country.
