About Michele Pollock Dalton
My name is Michele Pollock Dalton; and, I am an unapologetic romantic.
Although I have been writing since early childhood, I have only recently overcome my reticence about sharing the stories that I create.
Most days are spent wheeling around after a remarkable little boy that I love with all my heart. And, sometimes I put my domestic goddess skills to work, so we don't have to run around naked =)
White chocolate truffles and faith fuel my writing endeavors; and, my sincere hope is that the characters I invent resonate with folks who need a bit of inspiration to face their day.
