My name is Michelle Spies! That is why this website is www.michellespies.com (it was on purpose!)
I'm a writer, comedian, and editor. I'm a 2014 graduate of Northwestern University's Radio/TV/Film program which means I've seen a lot of movies and I am in debt. I also completed The Onion's Writing Fellowship in 2015. Currently I'm a Contributing Writer for the publication.
You may have read some of my other jokes and pieces in Clickhole, Botnik, Vulture, Someecards, or Onion Labs. It's possible you've seen me doing [what I call] stand up at "Critic" (the live movie review comedy show I created) back in Chicago. I also read reviews for Rotten Tomatoes.
Right now I'm in Los Angeles writing pilots and waiting for a pandemic to be over.
