He studied English and religion at Queens University of Charlotte and graduated in 1998.

After working various odd jobs and publishing early works under the name C.D. Wendig and C. David Wendig, he became a full-time freelance author writing under the name Chuck Wendig.

Before writing fiction professionally, Wendig worked as a freelance RPG writer for over a decade.

Wendig is part of the advisory board of Storium, an online storytelling game by Protagonist Labs that launched a successful Kickstarter campaign and raised over $250,000.

Wendig co-wrote the Emmy-nominated interactive transmedia project Collapsus with Lance Weiler.

2010

Along with writing partner Weiler, Wendig was selected for the 2010 Sundance Screenwriter's Lab for their feature film HiM.

HiM is being produced by Ted Hope, Christine Vachon, and Anne Carey.

His short film, Pandemic 41.410806, −75.654259, co-written and directed by Weiler, was selected for the 2011 Sundance Short Film Program.

At one point, Wendig and Weiler were also developing television pilot for TNT with Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick, but the network decided to pass.

He also contributed to David Cronenberg's transmedia production Body/Mind/Change, in which Weiler served as Creative Director.

2011

Wendig's first short story collection, Irregular Creatures, was published in January 2011.

In November 2011 followed Wendig's debut novel, Double Dead, published by Abaddon Books as part of its shared-world series Tomes of the Dead. Bad Blood, a sequel novella, was published in May 2012.

Shotgun Gravy, a young adult novella following Atlanta Burns, described as "Veronica Mars on Adderall," was self-published by Wendig in 2011.

2012

After a successful campaign, he went on to release Dinocalypse Now in 2012 and Beyond Dinocalypse in 2013.

Though slated to write the third (and final) volume of the Dinocalypse trilogy, Dinocalypse Forever, Wendig was unable finish the novel due to other commitments and was replaced by novelist Carrie Harris.

It was published in April 2012 by Angry Robot Books.

It was followed by a sequel, Mockingbird, in August 2012.

Wendig ran a successful Kickstarter campaign during February 2012 to publish Bait Dog, a follow-up novel to Shotgun Gravy, raising $6,800, more than twice the goal.

Bait Dog was self-published in 2012, and was later acquired along with Shotgun Gravy by Amazon Skyscape, and republished as Atlanta Burns in January 2015.

2013

He was a finalist for the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer in 2013.

Wendig grew up in New Hope, Pennsylvania.

For Abaddon, he also penned Unclean Spirits, out in May 2013, the first installment of the Gods and Monsters series.

The first novel in Wendig's Miriam Black series, Blackbirds, features a girl who can see the death of anyone she touches.

Also from Angry Robot, Wendig released The Blue Blazes in May 2013, the first novel in a new urban fantasy series following Mookie Pearl.

The third book in the Miriam Black series, The Cormorant, was published in December 2013.

2014

The Miriam Black books were optioned as a television series by Starz in 2014, to be developed by John Shiban, writer and producer of Breaking Bad and The X-Files, with a writers' room already set up.

In October 2014, Saga Press bought six books in Wendig's Miriam Black series, including the first three novels, previously published by Angry Robot Books.

2015

He is best known for his online blog Terribleminds, for his 2015 Star Wars novel trilogy Aftermath, the first book of which debuted at No. 4 on The New York Times Best Seller list and No. 4 on USA Today best seller list, for which series he created the characters of Gallius Rax and marshal Cobb Vanth, the latter of whom would subsequently appear in the Disney+ series The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.

Wendig has additionally written comics for Dark Circle Comics, Dynamite Entertainment, Marvel Comics, and VS Comics.

Wendig announced on his blog in November 2015 that Starz was no longer developing the adaptation.

In October 2015, Wendig re-released The Blue Blazes, as well as self-publishing a sequel, The Hellsblood Bride, after contract disputes with previous publisher Angry Robot.

He has stated that a third book, possibly titled A Sky Born Black or The Skyborn Bane might someday be published, should the first two books do well or be picked up by a publisher.

However, Wendig said the first two books stand alone and a third book is not necessary to conclude the story.
