JJ Carpenter

Award-winning author, JJ Carpenter, celebrates our personal stories and unearths our hidden histories through thrilling, terrifying tales.

She writes gothic and psychological fiction rooted in Australian history. Her work explores trauma, memory, and survival, often set within haunted places where the past presses uncomfortably into the present.

JJ is proudly queer, feminist, and neurodivergent. She lives with a minor disability and is a DV survivor, but does not let those labels define her.
