Recently, Alisha had her own viral moment when she tweeted about cake pops and a first date gone wrong:
The story of the tweet, and its ensuing popularity, was quickly picked up by national outlets, including Today, HuffPost, and Fox News. But as unexpected as the response was to this lone tweet, even more shocking was the backlash. Below, you can read Alisha's Huffpost article that reflects on the toxic online harassment that she faced as a result of the tweet. It's an eye-opening, can't-miss read that adds an extra dimension to her upcoming novel Girl Gone Viral.
