Spoken Word IS What I Do....

About Me


Peace...If you've met me once then you know exactly who I am. I'm living my life to the fullest. I've had a chance to travel to so many places & out of the country. I've met a bunch of great people & and I look forward to building even more relationships to come.

I am a Spoken Word Artist. I live it, breathe it, think it, write it, speak it.... Hence the name of my book. My first book was published in April 2007 and I'm currently working on a new non fiction title. I love performing at all types of venues and events. If something is going on in your town then hit me up & we can work out the details.

Other than that, I'm just a cool laid back, artsy type chic. You know the type. You can catch me in Starbucks or Borders Books. Tell me about a show & I will travel to your city. Life is about making things happen and that's exactly what I'm doing.

Line by line, Nykieria Chaney's straight forward style of writing takes readers into the uncensored mind of a Spoken Word Artist. In an eclectic assortment of poetry, she exposes situations often experienced but seldom talked about.

As her debuting book of poetry, Think It, Write It, Speak It Nothing But the Truth takes readers through a literary ride from thought provoking conscious works to cloud nine inspired love poems. Intended to arouse emotions, invoke self-reflection, and give voice to a young woman's acclamation for change, these poems embrace the life of a Spoken Word Artist.
