Michelle L Devon began writing at a very young age, and by jr. high, she was writing for the school paper, had won several poetry and prose contests, and had completed her first novella by age 13.

Life managed to get in the way, and amidst cries from her family that, 'writing is a hobby, not a career,' Ms. Devon put her writing dreams on hold and pursued an education and then a professional career.

Michelle attended high school in a small West Texas town in the Permian Basin, and then went on to pursue a college degree in psychology, with a minor in sociology. 

Her career centered around social services, advocacy and criminal justice for victims of violent crime in the non-profit sector, before she finally moved to the corporate world as a contract negotiator for a mult-billion dollar company.
 

Realizing that the corporate world wasn't where her heart longed to be, and not wanting to return to advocacy or the criminal justice field, Ms. Devon realized her purpose and her dream all along was to be a writer. Through everything in her life, Michelle wrote. Writing was the one constant she could depend upon.

So she quit her job negotiating million dollar contracts, with nothing to fall back on but her passion to write, and left the corporate world for good.

Today, Michelle L Devon works from home, where she lives and loves with her unique and special family, along with a houseful of furry four legged friends, including Rex the Funny Bunny.

"Writing is more than a job," she says, "It's a lifelong dream and a passion. Who could ask for more than to wake every morning and do the one thing you love the most and get paid for it too?"

Ms. Devon's quote: "I am a writer! It's not what I do; it's who I am."
