“Here I am — storyteller, creator, Queen Unicorn.”
Born and raised in Georgia, Chandra Martin discovered storytelling early. Her imagination was running long before she had the words to match it, but once she mastered language, the stories came pouring out — much to the delight of her parents. When she learned to write, it was a metaphorical stampede.
Her first recognition came in elementary school, when the school librarian was so moved by a poem Chandra wrote and dedicated to her that she entered it into a Georgia Poetry Society competition. Chandra, then in fourth grade, received an honorable mention — her first taste of literary affirmation outside her family.
When she isn’t plotting to conquer Alpha Centauri Cb as its one and only Queen Unicorn, Chandra can be found enjoying her other passions: cooking, watching anime, reading manga, playing easygoing PC games on her desktop (affectionately known as The Black Beast), and wandering through libraries. She also has a fascination with the occult — from a safe, non‑haunted distance.
Chandra has never stopped writing. Over the years, she has filled boxes with notebooks and notepads brimming with ideas, scenes, and concepts for future poems and novels across her favorite genres: mystery, horror, spirituality, fantasy, and science fiction. Now, she’s opening the box and inviting the world into the theater of her vibrant mind.
Creative Mission
Chandra’s work explores the eerie, the spiritual, and the speculative — always rooted in emotional truth and cultural memory. Whether through fiction or commentary, she invites readers into spaces where mystery meets meaning.
