When she isn’t writing, Michelle enjoys weightlifting, dark beer, web design, singing and playing guitar, and watching horror movies. She is afraid of the dark and spending quiet time with her broken heart.
She is the author of the novel When the Dead and the novella Mistakes I Made During the Zombie Apocalypse, three short stories collections: Last Night While You Were Sleeping, When You Find Out What You’re Made Of, and Once Upon a Time, When Things Turned Out Okay, a co-author of The Spread which she wrote with her twin sister, and a co-editor of GIVE: An Anthology of Anatomical Entries. Her most recent work, The Murk of Us, is a nonfiction prose and poetry collection documenting the horrors of the toxic empath/narcissist relationship. Her short stories are also featured in several anthologies.
