Michelle was raised on her
family's rural property, east of Armidale, on the Northern
Tablelands in NSW, Australia. After finishing school she
headed to Sydney to find work. She returned to Armidale two
years later to study accountancy.
She met her husband, a university student from Armidale,
through friends. On graduating they moved to Sydney to
further their careers. They lived in Newport on Sydney’s
northern beaches for just over four years. Travel beckoned
so they packed their bags and headed for London. Somehow
they ended up staying for four years. During this time they
travelled extensively throughout Europe and America, which
allowed Michelle to indulge her love of photography.
Since their return to Australia they have resettled on
Sydney’s northern beaches, this time in the suburb of Manly.
Despite their busy schedules Michelle and her husband have
regular trips to her family’s farm. These trips have become
more frequent since Michelle and her parents have adopted a
mob of brumbies.
It was while she was living in London that Michelle realised
she could no longer ignore her desire to write. She enrolled
in a writing course and has subsequently undertaken a three month
mentorship with Marg McAlister.
