C.E. Scantlebury is the inventive author behind The Legend of CacklePatch, a beguiling tale that charmed its way into Amazon’s Top Ten Hot New Releases in its category within its very first week.

Originally a JD/MBA, Scantlebury transformed her life’s course after her son was diagnosed with Fragile X Syndrome and autism, relocating to an enchanted cabin in the wooded hills of upstate New York—where she’s rumored to have encountered CacklePatch himself under an autumn moon.

Celebrated for blending fairy-tale whimsy with a touch of the delightfully macabre, Scantlebury’s writing invites readers to revel in creativity, individuality, and a fascination with the supernatural. Beyond CacklePatch, she contributes to esteemed tech and travel publications such as Ultimate Experiences and Hotels & Resorts, offering insights into everything from off-the-beaten-path adventures to the latest marvels in camera gear.

A curious mind and fervent devotee of all things mysterious, Scantlebury’s work sparkles with a playful, slightly campy sensibility that resonates with readers young and old, establishing her as a singular voice in the realm of feel-good, fantastical fiction.
