About Author JC Harris

BComm (Journ), GDip(Creatvwrit), MA(WritLit), PhD(candidate)

I'm an Australian author and PhD candidate, who specialises in young adult writing.

With a passion for exploring diverse genres, I thrive on the excitement of weaving together new worlds and experimenting with places and spaces that young adults can lose themselves in.

I write under my own name, JC Harris, together with the pen names Claudia Austen and Magnolia Mae. As Claudia Austen, I invite readers into the heart of rural Australia with my Sienna Grange Australian Cowboys series, a clean, heartfelt romance celebrating the charm and resilience of the outback. Writing under Magnolia Mae, I dive into a world of mystery and modern folklore in Seaweed, Scales, and Sisterhood, a magical stand-alone tale of mermaids and sisterhood.

My storytelling promises adventure, heart, and endless possibilities for my young adult readers.
