Writer of romantic historical fiction
It has been a while… Behind the scenes I have been busy beavering away on the editing stage of Lady Dixon’s Niece (which required quite a bit of revising). I’m finally satisfied with it and those first readers are casting their eye over it.
I’m reaching out to agents and publishers to see if there is appetite for my humble offering amongst them. Keep the fingers and toes crossed for me!

Chele Crawley is a teacher, a wife, a mother and writer based in the midlands of Ireland. With a background in journalism and print media, Chele has a nose for a story and likes a good yarn. Chele is currently working on a romance historical fiction series, Of Social Standing, set during the regency era. She is a member of Inklings writing group based in Mullingar, and regularly has her short stories printed in the local newspaper, Westmeath Examiner. In July 2025, Chele Crawley was double longlisted for the Writers By The Sea Literary Festival competition in both the memoir and short story category. Chele's dystopian short story, Clean Cut, recently was published in the 2025 National Science Week publication, Experiment with Words. Keen to hone the literary craft, Chele spends equally as much time reading as writing as she believes that reading for a writer is as essential as oxygen. Not surprising, Chele particularly enjoy reading romance historical fiction novels. Chele has her own blog, https://www.chelecrawley.com and is a member of Writing.ie https://www.writing.ie/member-emerging-writers/chele-crawley/ You can find Chele on social media; Instagram and Facebook, where she regularly posts about her writing journey.
