Hi! I’m Celeste and I live to tell stories.

Fortunately, as an author, filmmaker, intimacy coordinator, marketer, entrepreneur, and mom—I get to tell a lot of stories.

I’m the writer of LITTLE SORROWS, a feature-length psychological thriller about a sleep-deprived new mother who becomes convinced that her husband’s first wife is plotting to steal her baby.

My first screenplay, DARK ROOMS is a feature-length techno thriller about a lonely hacker who broadcasts the lives of strangers on the Dark Web.

My novel, In Absence of Fear, is a futuristic thriller about a father who must fight for his family after his young son goes missing in the safest city in the world.

I’m now at work on a feature-length dramedy called VANISH.

I have directed two short films: a short supernatural horror, CRADLE SONG, that screened at six festivals and the award-winning dramedy, FROM WAY UP HERE.

I have supported productions like AMERICAN MURDERER and Kevin Costner’s HORIZON: AN AMERICAN SAGA as an intimacy coordinator.

To help everyone preserve and harness the power of personal and family stories, I co-founded a social journaling app called KnowMe.

Screenwriter and director, Celeste Chaney, speaks with FILM COURAGE.
