Chihaya made her literary debut in 2008 with Iogami (魚神, Fish God), a novel that won the 21st Shōsetsu Subaru New Writer Award as well as the 37th Izumi Kyōka Prize for Literature, which is not usually awarded to a debut work. Her book Atokata (あとかた), a collection of short stories with common characters and the common theme of scarring, was published in 2013. Atokata won the Shimase Award for Love Stories and was nominated for the 150th Naoki Prize, but did not win. In July 2013 Chihaya married her husband. Her novel Otoko tomodachi (男ともだち, Male Friends), about a woman in a sexless marriage who breaks off her affair with another man to reconnect with a male friend from her school days, was published in 2014. Otoko tomodachi was nominated for the 151st Naoki Prize, but the prize went to Hiroyuki Kurokawa.

Since being nominated for the Naoki Prize Chihaya has produced several books, including the 2016 dark fantasy novel Yoru ni naku tori wa (夜に啼く鳥は), the 2017 novel Garden (ガーデン), about a male editor and his relationships with the women around him, and the 2018 novel Tadashii onnatachi (正しい女たち, Correct Women).
