Hey there! I’m ChaChanna!

Commanding the stage, the page, and your attention.

I’m a writer, storyteller, and podcast host who infuses joy, warmth, fun, and humor into everything I create. Whether it’s crafting short stories, performing live on stage, or sharing behind-the-scenes reflections on my podcast, Writing in Color with ChaChanna, storytelling is at the heart of everything I do.

I believe stories have the power to spark joy, create connection, and remind us we’re not alone—and that’s exactly what I aim to do, whether I’m sharing a personal memory, telling a true story at a live event, or exploring the ups and downs of creativity.


🎤 Storytelling

On stage, I bring personal narratives to life—stories filled with laughter, reflection, and sometimes a little song. I perform at community events, libraries, festivals, and open mics, and I’m currently developing a storytelling show celebrating the lives of extraordinary historical women.

✍🏾 Writing

On the page, I write short fiction, essays, and reflections rooted in joy, resilience, and creative curiosity. My monthly newsletter, Beyond the Page, offers a behind-the-scenes look at my creative journey—plus story moments, book recommendations, and joyful discoveries.

🎧 Podcasting

Every Saturday, I release a new episode of Writing in Color with ChaChanna, a podcast that documents the real, messy, and beautiful process of building a creative life from scratch. I share what I’m working on, what I’m learning, and the stories that light my path.
