Juliet has been a full-time writer for over twenty years. She was born and educated in Aotearoa New Zealand but now lives in Western Australia. Juliet’s novels combine historical fiction, folkloric fantasy, romance and family drama.
The strong elements of history and folklore in her work reflect her lifelong interest in both fields. However, her stories focus above all on the personal journeys of the characters. Her work has been published internationally.
Juliet has won many awards for her writing, including five Aurealis Awards and four Sir Julius Vogel Awards; the American Library Association’s Alex Award; the Prix Imaginales and the 2019 Sara Douglass Book Series Award for the Blackthorn & Grim series. In 2025, Juliet was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the World Fantasy convention in the UK.
