About DeMi Wilde

Three versions — use whichever fits your format. Click to copy.

DeMi Wilde is an author, brand builder, and storyteller based in the American South. Her debut novella, He Married the Side Chick, became an Amazon Top 100 Best Seller in its first week and sold out at BookNik Dallas. She writes women’s fiction, auto-fiction, and sapphic romance — stories about healing, choosing yourself, and surviving love that leaves a mark. She is the founder of Wilde House Publishing and the brand ABGMI. This is healing, with hands.™

DeMi Wilde is an author, brand builder, and creative entrepreneur whose debut novella, He Married the Side Chick, became an Amazon Top 100 Best Seller in its first week of release — charting at #62 in Black & African American Literary Fiction and selling out at BookNik Dallas.

She writes the kinds of stories she needed when she was trying to heal, love, and survive. Her work lives at the intersection of women’s fiction, auto-fiction, and honest storytelling — populated by characters who are messy, flawed, deeply human, and choosing themselves even when it’s hard.

DeMi is the founder of Wilde House Publishing and the lifestyle brand ABGMI (A Black Girl Made It). She is currently writing her second novel, Sugar & Spite (September 2026), and her debut self-help book, Get You Some F***ing Boundaries (December 2026). This is healing, with hands.™

DeMi Wilde is an author, brand builder, and creative entrepreneur whose work sits at the intersection of storytelling, healing, and radical honesty. Her debut novella, He Married the Side Chick, became an Amazon Top 100 Best Seller in its first week of release — charting at #62 in Black & African American Literary Fiction and #687 in Women’s Literary Fiction. The book sold out at BookNik Dallas and has accumulated over 14,750 Kindle Unlimited pages read.

She writes the kinds of stories she needed when she was trying to heal, love, and survive. Her auto-fiction draws from lived experience — the kind of experiences people would swear you exaggerated, downplayed, or should have known better about. Her characters are messy, flawed, deeply human, and learning to choose themselves even when it’s hard.

Beyond fiction, DeMi is the founder of Wilde House Publishing — the creative home for her books, reader goods, and publishing ventures — and ABGMI (A Black Girl Made It), a lifestyle and apparel brand built on becoming and rebuilding. She is currently writing Sugar & Spite, a sapphic revenge romance due September 2026, and Get You Some F***ing Boundaries, a self-help book and companion workbook and journal due December 2026. A podcast of the same name launches in Spring 2027.

DeMi writes, builds, and heals — loudly, on purpose, and without apology. This is healing, with hands.™

In the Room

BookNik Dallas · April 2025

DeMi tabled at BookNik Dallas — “your neighborhood book party” — and sold out. That’s the energy.

DeMi Wilde at BookNik Dallas

Sold out. First event. Debut book.

BookNik Dallas is a curated neighborhood book party featuring local authors, vendors, and readers. DeMi set up her table, brought her books, her stickers, her energy — and sold through everything she brought. Not bad for a debut. Not bad at all. 🤎
