Michelle M Deyarmin

Michelle M Deyarmin grew up in a small town in Ohio. In 6th grade she signed up for a short story contest through her school. She didn't make the team and she was devastated, but her teacher at the time reassured her by telling her that her writing was good and she just needed more time to develop the story. This has always stuck with Michelle.

Michelle currently lives with her fiancé, Luke and their dogs Rosie, Sage, and Sweetpea.

"Sandy the Service Dog: Lost in a Hurricane" is Michelle's first published book. She is very proud of how far she has come.

Michelle also writes lyrics and has 6 fully finished songs. She also dabbled in poetry when she was younger and won numerous contests.
