Bio Jennifer Scoullar

Jennifer Scoullar is a bestselling author of Australian rural fiction, and lives with her family on a small property in West Gippsland. Her house is on a hilltop, overlooking valleys of messmate and mountain ash.

Her latest novel, the romantic suspense Under Kakadu Skies (Pilyara Press 2026), is out now.

Jennifer’s work has been shortlisted for the Elyne Mitchell Rural Writing Awards, the Harper Collins Manuscript Awards and the Varuna Publisher Fellowships. Her novel Currawong Creek was a finalist in the RUBY (Romantic Elements) Award.
