Michelle lives in Worcestershire, UK, with her husband, Daniel, and their two young children.

Her first joyful steps into creative writing were at the age of ten, when the teacher read out her short story in class. A slapstick tale of two talking kangaroos breaking out of a zoo, the work was sadly lost to history. Still, Michelle never forgot the buzz of others enjoying her words.

More recently, she has had several flash pieces published, was longlisted for the Cambridge 2020 prize for flash fiction and placed first in the February 2020 Writers’ Forum competition with her short story The Truth About Cherry House. She signed with Darkstroke Books in June 2020 and her post-apocalyptic eco-thriller Tipping Point was longlisted for the 2022 Page Turner Awards. The sequel, Counterpoint, is out now!
