ABOUT Michele Venne

Teaching was my first career choice. Being a writer isn’t what I grew up believing I wanted to become. In high school, I enrolled in Honors English classes. Throughout college, I enjoyed writing assignments, whether essays or research papers. I wrote newspaper articles about activities offered by organizations and clubs I was involved with. For years, I penned a holiday letter that was mailed to friends and family. 

Around 2002, part of a story kept replaying itself in my imagination, so I wrote down what I saw on the movie screen in my head. It turned out to be a prologue and the first three chapters of my first novel, which sat for a few years. I polished that part and wrote another five chapters during a creative writing class at a local college. In 2008, I finished the manuscript in three weeks. Due to unforeseen difficulties with a publisher, I decided to travel the road of indie publishing. 

Though I continue to create novels, I’ve broadened my writing to include poetry and short stories. Each book contains a Dear Reader letter at the beginning that includes some of my research and how I came up with the story idea. Concluding with Questions to Ponder, I invite readers to consider their thoughts regarding societal issues illuminated on the pages. I’ve spent time studying the craft of writing and have been fortunate enough to meet many talented writers. I’m grateful for the support of others who have made bringing forth a manuscript from imagination to published pages possible. I hope you enjoy the stories and poems you find here.
