About.
“II didn’t reinvent myself as I grew older.I allowed what was already alive to surface.”
My work now centers women navigating desire, identity, and transformation — stories where becoming is not spectacle, but revelation.
Hey there, I’m C.J.
French–American Author of Contemporary Women’s & Psychological Fiction
I write the inner lives of women — their desires, contradictions, and awakenings.
I’m 40 & Unfolding
For years, I moved through the roles expected of me — daughter, partner, mother, professional — until the work began to demand something truer. Writing became the place where I could examine desire, identity, and power without apology. What began as a private reckoning evolved into a body of work centered on women in motion — questioning, unraveling, choosing themselves.
My Creative World
Today, I create through three languages:
Rituals — where I share the practices that anchor me: beauty, movement, nourishment, and small acts of devotion.
Each expression feeds the other. Together, they form the rhythm of my unfolding — the way I make sense of who I am and who I’m still becoming.
My Philosophy.
A woman’s life is a work of art — not perfected, but inhabited. I write women at the threshold of themselves: negotiating desire, identity, power, and presence. Transformation, in my work, is not spectacle. It is embodiment.
