Karen Vickers

Welcome to my page.

My love for writing started when I was in high school, with a few short romance stories, but it took seventeen years before I found the courage and inspiration to write again.

Over the next sixteen years, between working, raising two children, moving from one side of Australia to the other, and buying my first house, I finally published my first novel, Remember Me, in June 2025 and my second novel, Saving Iris, in November 2025.

Both my published novels touch on domestic violence, something I have experienced in my life and writing these books helped me heal.

My next two books will be completely different.

Book 1: The Speakeasy Bootlegger, is based on a lady who takes over her husbands bootlegging business in the 1920s.

Book 2: Gilded, is a fae story about elves, fairies and humans and will be a two part series.

Currently I reside in Hervey Bay, Qld along with my son and two cats (and yes, I really am a crazy cat lady), and an unhealthy but much loved obsession with chocolate.

I work part time as an author and part time as a Sterilisation Technician but I hope in the future to be a full time writer.
