My name is Alyssa Palombo, and I am a writer living and working in Buffalo, NY. I attended Canisius College in Buffalo, where I majored in English and creative writing with a minor in music. I’m a classically trained mezzo-soprano who also dabbles in playing piano. When not writing, I can usually be found reading, hanging out and laughing way too hard at nonsensical inside jokes with friends, traveling (or dreaming of my next travel destination), or at a concert. My novels are THE VIOLINIST OF VENICE, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IN FLORENCE, THE SPELLBOOK OF KATRINA VAN TASSEL, and THE BORGIA CONFESSIONS (out 2/11/20).
