Another piece about Alicia was published by the student paper of the University of Nevada at Reno, The Nevada Sagebrush.
It’s a quick article and includes some quotes from Professor Peter Mitchell, who visited her in the hospital several weeks ago. You may read it here: http://nevadasagebrush.com/blog/2010/04/20/graduate-author-nears-end-of-battle-with-cancer/.
There is a nice story about Alicia on the front page of today’s Reno Gazette Journal.
I just came across this coverage of Alicia’s participation in the 2005 Robert Laxalt Distinguished Writer Program at the University of Nevada, Reno: http://www.unr.edu/journalism/content/051001/051024page2.htm. Alicia graduated from the UNR’s Donald W. Reynolds School of Journalism in 2004.
