Fanély Gouguet started off her writing journey with a middle-grade novel 'Les Aventures de Philibert au Sri Lanka', published by L'Harmattan.

Winner of the Act Bedford and Content Created 2022 competition, her 30’ comedy, 'No Filter', was broadcasted as a radio play in the UK. Laureate of the 2023 Film Fund Luxembourg’s writing grant to develop her romantic comedy concept, the feature screenplay has been long listed by Courage to Write grants in the US.
