Charron Monaye
Founder and Owner
Charron Monaye is a multi-talented trailblazer who’s been dominating the literary, theater, and entertainment worlds for over three decades. With a pen in one hand and an unstoppable drive in the other, Charron has built an empire that includes 25+ books, groundbreaking stage plays, and a growing footprint in film and television production.
Known for her children’s book series The Adventures of Michelle and the critically acclaimed stage play Get Out of Your Own Way, Charron’s work has touched hearts, shifted perspectives, and earned standing ovations from Hollywood to Off-Broadway. But her creative magic doesn’t stop there—she’s been a powerhouse contributor for platforms like CNN iReport, Hype Hair Magazine, The Philadelphia Association of Paralegals, VA Gazette, and her inspiring journey has been featured in media outlets such as WE Empower.com, Pretty Women Hustle Magazine, Emoir Magazine.com, Geaux Queen Magazine, In The City Magazine, Sheen Magazine, Vision & Purpose LifeStyle Magazine, and Millennium Magazine, just to name a few.
Due to Charron’s deep desire to serve and uplift African American culture, she ensures its powerful stories are celebrated on the global stage. She has lent her expertise and gifts to esteemed award institutions like the Recording Academy and the NAACP Image Awards, further solidifying her influence in shaping cultural narratives and championing the recognition of African American contributions in entertainment. In addition, her hustle and impact haven’t gone unnoticed. Charron is rocking a list of honors that includes being named a “Fellow of the Most Excellent Order of International Experts (FOIE)” by the United Nations and Woman of Influence, receiving an Honorary Doctorate from CICA International University & Seminary, and earning commendations from the New Jersey General Assembly and Senate. She’s also a 2024 Global 100 Honoree and has been inducted into Marquis Who’s Who of America.
Never one to shy away from a new challenge, Charron has stepped into the world of film and TV as an Associate Producer, Executive Producer, and Production Assistant, helping bring bold stories to the screen alongside some of the industry’s biggest names. When she’s not writing, producing, or empowering others through her companies, Pen Legacy and CM Writes, she’s collaborating with stars like D’Atra Hicks, Evelyn Braxton, Toni Moore, Esq, Precious Williams, Ty Johnston-Chavis, Camille Cooper, and Cas Sigers to amplify diverse voices in books, scripts, and media content.
Whether she’s crafting life-changing stories or making boss moves behind the scenes, Charron Monaye is proving that the only limits are the ones you set yourself. Her journey is far from over—and the best is yet to come.

Testimonials
Happy Clients
We’ve worked with authors, brands, and creatives who trust us to bring their vision to life. Here are some of the clients we’ve proudly served.
This is my fourth time working with Pen Legacy!
“ As a repeat client, I am always amazed by the level of detail, thought, and care given to my books. Charron Monaye is the ultimate book coach, ghostwriter, and publisher with whom I have had the true pleasure of working with–PERIOD! Writing a book is not easy, and trusting someone with your book is even harder. For all of my books to be #1 bestsellers on Amazon at full price is unheard of! More importantly, I never feel alone in my book journey. Our successes together speak volumes, and I plan to stay a client until Charron tells me to go, which I hope is never.”
