Who am I?
I am Talie Michel, an author of contemporary lesbian romances where emotions, journeys, and intrigue blend together. And sometimes, I leave room for fantasy or mystery, taking my readers to new horizons.

 

My journey
I spent my first twenty years in Africa, then studied in northern France before settling in Rhône-Alpes, where I have been living for more than thirty years. For twenty-five years, I worked in a large international company. Then, around the age of fifty, I decided to take a 180-degree turn and finally devote myself to writing.

 

Why I write
Writing has always been part of my plans. When I finally took the leap, I discovered how liberating and exciting it could be. For me, writing is a true therapy: it forces me to open up, push my limits, and explore my darker corners. Drafting a novel has always come naturally, but the cycle of corrections, revisions, and promotion pushed me well out of my comfort zone.

 

My novels and translations
My first lesbian novel helped me grow (yes, even at my age!), the second one as well, in a different way. The third gave me the chance to pay tribute to my two cats, who deeply marked my life.
Passionate about lesbian literature, I have also translated five novels. Find my lesbian romances translation work here.

 

Today and tomorrow
My novels are available in ebook and paperback on Amazon, Kobo, Fnac, Apple Books, and Google Play. And many more stories are already taking shape in my restless, ever-creative mind.
