The Dreamer Behind the Waves
Some stories are imagined. Others are remembered.
Déjàjoi Moseley is a scholar, storyteller, military spouse, mother, mermaid at heart, and proud daughter of the Caribbean. Her writing weaves together mythology, history, folklore, and ancestral memory to create immersive fantasy worlds that celebrate culture, resilience, identity, and hope.
Inspired by the vibrant beauty of the Caribbean and the enduring traditions of its people, Déjàjoi writes stories where the sea remembers, legends come alive, and forgotten voices rise from beneath the waves. Her debut novel, Saltborn, blends epic fantasy with Caribbean mythology, Taíno spirituality, and historical inspiration to tell a story of courage, sacrifice, and the power of memory.
Whether she's researching ancient civilizations, exploring coastal landscapes, or dreaming up new worlds beneath the tide, Déjàjoi believes stories have the power to preserve history, spark imagination, and remind us that some voices should never be forgotten.
When she isn't writing, you'll likely find her with her family, near the ocean, or chasing the next story waiting just beneath the surface.
Because some stories were never lost—they were waiting beneath the waves.
