About Michele Marie Tate Books
Michele was born in Cleveland, Ohio and moved to California as a child. For the past fourteen years she has lived in Portland, Oregon with her husband of forty-three years, their daughter and her family. She pursued a career as a health professional, but always made time for what she loved most, writing. Re-current childhood dreams, unexplained visions and questions about life and death drove her to read about Edgar Casey and others who could transcend the physical plane. On her spiritual journey she took classes in Tarot, which opened her dyslexic mind to receive higher guidance. Later she also obtained a degree as a certified Hypnotherapist, who specialized in past life regression. When her son died in a tragic car accident at the age of 21, she longed to have an even greater understanding of the bigger picture of life. Her son Irwin had written over forty songs, a screenplay and they had begun writing a children's book called Pizarus. Michele finished it and hopefully one day that too, will be published. For the past several years to fine-tune her writing skills she joined Willamette Writers and attended workshops and conferences. After meeting a new friend in Oregon, who read some of her writing, she was asked to give life to the heart-wrenching story of her husband's murder. Thus began her début novel, Blood, Money, Power, an epic political saga of wealth and greed that leads to murder and inspired by a true story. Many hours of research followed to give this historical novel's readers a trip back in time. Michele continues her spiritual growth by studying the Kabala, meditation and being a mystic guide and energy reader. Her many travels to China, Chili, Europe and Machu Picchu have offered ageless understanding of our world. Most recently she has begun a sequel that promises to keep her readers asking for more. Michele states, "My daily aspirations are to support our planet and live in kindness and consciousness. I always seek the truth, justice and peace for all humanity."
