Michelle Makariak

Michelle Makariak is a co-lyricist, co-libretto writer and researcher for Fated: The Musical, working with her three oldest children and doing whatever called upon by them to help move this project forward.  A proud mother of musicians and creatives, Michelle is also a foster parent, a magazine editor, and a (once) frustrated writer and poet who has always had stories to tell, but never enough time to tell them.  In other words, being able to work with Adri, Collin and Josh on Fated: The Musical is extremely rewarding for her because it means she gets to spend time with her adult kids while feeding her creative spark.  It also means her own much-loved parents can stop saying, “Why don’t you write more and do something with your poetry?”
