Missy Harris, Neighbor

I have been living on Long Island my whole life and writing and editing here for more than a decade. One year, though, I left the country to “see the world.” I traveled throughout Europe and the Middle East, meeting wonderful people and having fantastic adventures along the way.

Traveling for so long and being introduced to so many different cultures and ways of life, made me more open-minded as a person and as a writer. It also gave me perspective on just what Long Island has to offer, and what you can’t find anywhere else.
