Penulis: Michelle Souliere

Michelle Souliere is the author and editor of the Strange Maine blog, winner of the Portland Phoenix”s “Best Blog” award in 2008 and 2009, and the Strange Maine Gazette, its print offshoot. She is the founder of the Green Hand Bookshop in Portland, Maine. Michelle spends much of her so-called free time doing research for Strange Maine, and collecting stories from friends and strangers that feed this pursuit. Another activity commanding a portion of her time is that of creating artwork for local display and publication, which includes drawing, painting and ridiculous amounts of photography. Her bookshop is kept interesting by its adjacency to the International Cryptozoology Museum, a décor made up of curious and sometimes inexplicable knickknacks, and a constant deluge of incoming books (bring waders). She likes Maine very much.
