Michelle Adams
I was born in 1981, the youngest of five and the only girl. For a short period of time after that I might have been my mum's long awaited princess, but it became obvious that I was the kind of child who was more into mud pies and catching insects than I was pretty dresses. I loved my purple Doc Marten's, hated my floral wallpaper, and was never allowed to paint my bedroom black. No, not even the ceiling.
I went to school in Warwick, UK, and throughout my school years I loved art, music, and English, yet somehow managed to end up studying clinical science at university.

Je suis née le en 1977 près de Bordeaux, où je vis toujours.
J’ai commencé à dévorer les livres dès que j’ai su lire. La Bibliothèque rose, la Bibliothèque verte, puis de nombreux romans qui me faisaient vivre mille et une vies.
