I’m Celeste Escalera – a storyteller, scriptwriter, poet, and unapologetic rewriter of not just sentences, but life itself. I’m the writer of The A-I Lies Within (a psychological thriller) and The SEED Between Worlds and Stars (a fantasy drama short), both award-winning scripts recognized for blending emotional intensity with genre-defying themes.

From production accountant on blockbusters like Fast & Furious 10 to managing TikTok creators and global entertainment deals, my career has never followed a straight line, and neither have my stories. When the 2023 film strike halted everything, I found myself in freefall: financial chaos, legal battles with one of the nation’s biggest property management companies, and a gut-wrenching identity crisis.

Spoiler alert: I lived. And I wrote. A lot.

What started as cover letters turned into creative fire. Today, I write scripts that mess with your head, essays that cut deep, and blog posts laced with sarcasm and soul. With two screenplays registered with the WGA, a nearly finished book, and a site full of chaos, catharsis, and commentary, this is where I tell the stories I had to live to write.
