| Chat with Michelle McCorkle |
Michelle McCorkle always wanted to be a teacher and used to set up her dolls and teddy bears as if in a classroom. She gave them tests and corrected them with a red pen. As a teen, she wrote a lot of poetry and kept a daily diary.
Writing always came easy for Michelle. She read Sidney Sheldon's Master of the Game in 8th grade and  she was hooked on the plot twists. It was then she dreamed of writing her own stories. Life in the Fast Lane and Another Life in the Fast Lane are Michelle's first two books. For her third book, Michelle was inspired by her own experiences with ghosts and has tied some of that experience into Angel of Mercy. Michelle's second ghost story is her fourth novel,
 Voices from Beyond. It released in December 2011.
Michelle has been teaching middle school English for 16 years including a Health curriculum for 6 years. She finds that a lot of parents don't like to talk to their children about adolescent issues  because they're too embarrassed, but this is where communication needs to be the strongest. She usually likes to incorporate touchy adolescent topics and realistic experiences of what it was like growing up in the '80s into her books.
Michelle lives in New Hampshire with her husband and 4 daughters.

Murder, Embezzlement, Betrayal and Silence: If I Should Die is a suspenseful journey into the lives of many people. The choices and impacts are repulsive and inspiring. Silence will never sound the same.
