Shelby Carleton
Narrative Designer, Author
Hi, I’m Shelby!
I’m a narrative designer and author with a passion for writing compelling dialogue, empathetic characters, and stories that seamlessly meld with gameplay. You may have seen my writing in Call of Duty Vanguard, or Call of Duty Black Ops 6. I’ve written for both single-player campaigns and multiplayer experiences, finding the fun in cinematics, level dialogue, comics, and game trailers. My debut novel, SEXPOCALYPSE, is coming soon!
COMING SOON
“Video game writer Shelby Carleton’s SEXPOCALYPSE, about a young woman who sets out from her post-apocalyptic bunker into a hellscape of intel cultists and vegan cannibals on quest to abort the pregnancy that could save the dwindling human race, to Zach Phillips at Pantheon, in a pre-empt, by Charlie Olsen at InkWell Management (NA).”
