About the Author

Michelle Fleming-Bendo is an artist and poet with a lifelong passion for self-expression. After discovering her love for the written word in middle school, she continued to explore both visual arts and poetry. While earning her graduate degree from San Francisco State University’s School of Psychology, she formally studied creative writing, discovering a powerful synergy between psychology and the arts. In From My Mouth to Your Ear, Michelle combines these disciplines to craft deeply personal, emotionally resonant poetry. She writes to create a sense of belonging and understanding for her readers. Her greatest hope is that this collection will transport you to a place of comfort, where you can see yourself reflected in every poem.
