Celeste Joy Writes

Hello! I’m Celeste Joy, an English teacher, professional writer, and lifelong lover of stories.

By day, I teach English, where I help students discover the power of language, critical thinking, and creativity. In the classroom, I’m passionate about literature, writing instruction, and helping learners find their voices on the page. I believe words shape the way we understand the world and ourselves.

Outside the classroom, I’m a professional writer with a deep love for storytelling, especially in fantasy and reflective nonfiction. My work blends imagination, faith, and real life, exploring themes of courage, identity, and hope. Whether I’m drafting a novel, crafting essays, or mentoring writers, my goal is always the same: to tell meaningful stories that connect and endure.

This blog is a space where education meets creativity. Here, you’ll find insights on teaching English, writing, literature, faith-centered reflections, and the behind-the-scenes journey of building a writing life. Whether you’re a fellow teacher, an aspiring writer, or a reader who loves stories, you’re welcome here.

Thank you for being part of the journey.
