I write as Chaiga T. Cheska, a name born from my younger brother's way of saying my real name when we were children. After his unexpected death at the end of 2021, I incorporated his name into my pen name, so that he walks with me in every word.
For nearly twenty years, I have been creating the world of MirMarnia, a mythic sanctuary beyond the veil. It began as a private refuge and has since become a vessel for healing, reckoning, and quiet resistance.
In 2021, I was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. Writing this story became a form of accidental therapy: a way to hold grief and fear in one hand, and imagination and choice in the other.
MirMarnia is not only a story but a protest against forgetting. Beneath every chapter runs a steady undercurrent: that all life is worth fighting for, no matter what we believe in, where we come from, or how we appear.
This is a gathering place for those who walk with myth to understand the world and their place in it.
I hope you'll step through and join me.
