About
Part storyteller, part systems thinker.
Shantaye Brown writes fiction that lives in the grey areas, where the line between deviant and saint is never as clean as it looks. Zel is the first book in her Deviants & Saints series.
By day she works in tech, with a background in IT support and marketing. That same problem-solving mindset shaped how she published: learning the process, doing the work, and building her own path to readers.
She documents it all on YouTube in The Journey To Getting Published, sharing the real steps, costs, and lessons so other writers can get their books out into the world too.
