      Maybe send her an email via her contact page? Yeah, it's been a while since she's posted here. Maybe she's on a vacation.

      Yes, it's strange not seeing Marisa posting in the forums.  She is very clever and knowledgeable about Hubpages, and I miss reading her posts!  I hope she is well!

      Marisa has left Hub Pages.  You can reach her through a contact sheet at pointeshoes dot com if you want to get in touch.  She sold her site to the man who was offering to buy them and has moved on to other things.  I told her this would be a terrible loss for the writers here on HP because her help and knowledge have been invaluable.  Just know that she is fine and is doing well.  I only posted this with her permission, so am not breaking any confidences.  Bear in mind that she can no longer come onto the forums because she no longer is a member of HP.

      Correction: the website for contacting Marisa is pointeshoesonline dot com not pointeshoes dot com.  My bad.
      
      She has read your posts here, however, and appreciates all of your kind words.

   I was wondering the same thing. She is a great person and always willing to help the newbies, and not so newbies like myself. The forums need her presence.

   Yes, I was wondering about Marisa, too. She always goes above and beyond to help fellow writers, and she has a wealth of information. When there's a debate about something here, I always wait for her to chime in so I get the true scoop. Hope you're doing great, Marisa!

    Good for Marisa! I hope she's moving on to find continued success.
    
    I sold all my content to Ehow about 7 years back and used the proceeds to open a restaurant. I'd love to know what Marisa moves onto next.

    I’m not surprised that Marisa sold her account to John Williams, because she is an excellent writer and her content obviously had a lot of value for an investor. It must have brought her a worthwhile payment for the sale.
    
    Marisa, if you’re reading this, I wish you all the best with your other endeavors. You were a tremendous help to the HubPages community and you will be very much missed.

    I am saddened to hear that Marisa has left HP, though glad to hear that she is okay.  She had a way of explaining things that everyone could understand.  I always appreciated her posts.

    Hey Everyone,
    I gave Marisa a link to this forum thread and she seemed flattered. She told me:
    
    "I may join up again at some time in the future, but for now it would be great if you could let people know I have my hands full with new projects."
    
    So I am just passing the word along at her request! As some of you have already said, she is a very talented writer and it wouldn't surprise me if she has plenty of opportunities pulling her different directions. Which it sounds like she does!
