Michele has been writing since she was able to read. She sold poetry and short stories. THE COLLECTOR is her first book. When asked what made Michele want to write a book, here is what she had to say. “I met Mary Higgins Clark at one of her book signings. I asked her if she had any advice for an aspiring writer with lots of short stories. She took my hand, looked me in the eye, and said to me with a smile as brilliant as her mind, ‘Honey, write a book. Think of the royalties…’” And the rest is history-
