Michele, how long have you been writing, and what do you write?
 
My earliest writing projects involved climbing onto furniture and using lipstick or nail polish on the walls. Red was always my favorite color. Brought tears to my mother&#8217;s eyes, and was the start of my name confusion: For years, I didn&#8217;t know if my [...]]]></description>
