CREATOR PROFILE // PURPLE INKWELL STUDIOS ACTIVE RECORD
April Martin Transmedia Storyteller USAF Veteran Artist & Author

About the Creator

April Martin is a transmedia storyteller, USAF veteran, and multidisciplinary artist dedicated to exploring myth, trauma, and transformation through word and image. With over two decades of personal healing work and creative practice, April fuses the sacred and the rebellious in everything she creates from literary fiction and essay collections to digital ritual courses and physical zines.

Creative Philosophy

Her work stems from a belief that story is spellwork, and that art can become a vessel for soul reclamation. Whether through cyberpunk rebellion or sacred journaling, she invites her audience into a deeper relationship with archetypes, personal myth, and emotional truth.

Personal Note

“I don't write stories to entertain. I write them to wake the parts of us that have gone underground. Everything I create is part elegy, part invocation, part weapon. This is how I fight back—with poetry, with truth, with myth.”
