Valene Campbell

Valene is a Canadian born, author from the Greater Toronto Area with deep Caribbean roots hailing from Jamaica. She shares that her heritage is rich in various art forms, including poetry and storytelling. “There is never a family gathering without hearing a funny story about a random character (fiction or non-fiction), deriving from that beautiful island.” Valene’s love and appreciation for storytelling is also a way to stay connected to one of her many cultural traditions. Much of her experience in writing scripts were developed and nurtured in her immediate community. “If you weren’t participating in a skit/play by writing or acting in it, you were observing one.”

Valene has a fun and engaging approach to storytelling. Her style incorporates true events and educational elements, while infusing doses of humour. Valene’s work is memorable and appreciated by the young and the young at heart.
