Wolf Brother

Ask Michelle Anything

Tyler writes…

I don’t have a question, but I wanted to thank you your books really helped me through a difficult time in my life. Starting with wolf brother when I was very young that series really helped. It also inspired me to write my own books and I am now writing screen play scripts And I just wanted to thank you you’re an amazing author and I just can’t thank you enough

Michelle Replies…

Dear Tyler, What a lovely message to receive, thank you so much.  I’m delighted that my stories have helped you in the past.  It’s also terrific to know that you write, too.  Thanks again for getting in touch, and may your own writing go from strength to strength!  With best wishes, Michelle
