Iliana Tersy, a poet from South Florida, has been publishing her poetry since 2000.  She has written foremost in the genre of poetry, and published her collections over the past decade.  An avid writer and personable storyteller, Tersy has published her first short-story entitled, "Our Last Weekend."  She began wring the story about 10 years ago--putting the story away, taking it out, and working on it again: a sort of hibernation and cacooning process.  Her "butterfly" finally came into fruition when Iliana received an email from Barnes & Nobles PubIt with an offer to publish her story as an e-book.   She felt compelled to publish the novella about a single young woman's  last weekend trip with her cousin.  Tersy also published a hardcopy version with Lulu Press.  Both versions were published on 10/14/2010.
