Selina Marcille

Fiction, pop culture, essays, and the questions that keep us reading past midnight.

Selina Marcille writes young adult fiction, thrillers, and essays that explore how stories shape identity — for better and worse. Her debut novel, The Corpse Artiste, was published in 2020, and her short fiction has appeared in the Once Upon a Book Club anthology.

When she’s not writing, Selina teaches college-level creative writing, literature, and sociology, where her courses include Banned Books, Popular Fiction, Fandom Studies, and the Sociology of Conspiracy Theories. Her interest in the intersection of storytelling and social behavior also informs her work in the classroom, where she draws on sociological frameworks to help students understand how narratives shape culture, belief, and identity.

Selina is a speaker and workshop leader whose presentations range from TEDx to writing conferences to podcast guest spots — always circling back to the same question: how do the stories we consume shape the people we become?
