About Cheyenne
I graduated from Falmouth University in Cornwall, England, a setting which continually inspires my character-driven fantasy stories that twist folklore, forgotten places, ancient ruins, historical secrets, and future possibilities into our everyday lives. My essay, Castles and Ruins, features in Dan Koboldt’s PUTTING THE FACT IN FANTASY from Penguin Random House.
I write about emotional journeys as seen through a fantasy / speculative lens, often including themes such as self-doubt, missed chances, lost loves, identity, and the stories we believe—about others & ourselves.
I am currently seeking representation.
