About Me
Nichelle Gainer is the Founder of Anovelista Media, home of the blogs 55 Secret Street (beauty and fashion) and Revenge of the Curves (health and fitness). Her personal blog, Anovelista.com, covers culture, history, politics and the arts. Nichelle is the author of the forthcoming memoir, A Diva in the Family and a novel that has been kicking her ass for a number of years. When she is not writing, which is too often, she frets over her NYU tuition bill, bakes red velvet cupcakes and Twitters for no apparent reason.
