NISSA
VAN RIPER

Doing things.
Especially writing.

This is where I crow about my ideas.
And a jot about me.

Some other stuff on Instagram.

Looking through an alpine valley from a restaurant patio with a string of colorful paper lanters in the foreground

What inspires me and what has come of it.

ˈnɪsə væn ˈraɪpər

Shunning perfectly apropos advice

from perfectly qualified individuals,

I did not pursue a career in writing.

I chose residential construction and design.


Four chapters and twelve moves later

my stories are built

with words instead of wood.

Mostly fiction.

Entirely for children.

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness,
and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts.
