About Me

My name is Ashley Chapman, also known as T. Darling. I am a poet, writer and published author. Welcome to my creative haven! From the tender age of a little girl, I have embarked on an enchanting journey of words, weaving tales through plays, melodies through songs, and emotions through poetry. My pen has been my faithful companion, translating the vibrant hues of my imagination into stories that dance off the pages.As a lifelong writer, I've nurtured my passion for storytelling, watching it evolve from whimsical childhood scribbles to nuanced narratives. My creative spirit thrives on the intricate dance between words and emotions, painting vivid landscapes within the minds of those who dare to read.
In my world, every blank page is a canvas waiting to be adorned with the magic of language. Whether crafting whimsical plays that transport audiences to fantastical realms, composing soul-stirring songs that echo the melodies of the heart, or penning poetry that captures the essence of fleeting moments, my journey has been an exploration of the boundless possibilities that words offer.
As most of you know, I published my very first book, "Family Ties," with my dad, Marvin Chapman Jr. He passed away sadly before the book was published. In honor of him, I got the book published and want the world to know how talented my dad was, and whom I got it from. 
​Imagination and poetry has been my constant muse, and with each stroke of the keyboard or swirl of the pen, I endeavor to invite you into the enchanting tapestry of my mind. Join me on this odyssey of creativity, where stories come to life, melodies linger in the air, and poetry whispers secrets only the heart can comprehend.
