Elle Becker is a writer, speaker, and instructor. Her work has appeared in Prevention Magazine, ACPA's The Chronicle, Five on the Fifth, Twenty-Two Twenty-Eight, BlinkerLit, and other literary publications. Elle previously won the Tempe Writing Competition and was named Highly Commended in the McLellan Poetry Competition, which is proof that occasionally, people take her seriously. 
A great deal of Elle's writing is on Medium and Substack. She teaches the writing course From Idea to Edit. 
She loves all dogs, good books, cheese, and nice humans, and aspires to be a crazy dog lady. Elle drinks more coffee than a beatnik at a poetry slam and has important life goals, like meeting her favorite authors and someday, somehow completing Fallout 4 in Very Easy mode. Elle is rotten at gaming, but she can beat you in bar trivia about subjects that have no real-world application. She writes words that make people laugh, cry, or, at the very least, question their life choices.
Elle loves to hear from you and encourages you to write your heart out. You never know where words can take you.
