Juliet

juliet

From a young age, I loved stories. I remember going to story time at the library, my parents reading to me and watching live theatre. At school I wrote short stories and worked on the school magazine committee.

Primary teaching gave me the opportunity to share my love of reading, writing and storytelling with the younger generation. I was passionate about being a teacher but this was not enough. After several successful years in this profession, I wanted my words and voice to reach a larger audience around the world. Writing books allowed me to do this.

I write contemporary realism. My books are Behind the Mask, Bon Voyage!, Dance Demons, Outback Wonder, Grace’s Mystery Seed and Cato’s Can Can. I was a student at Bryce Courtenay’s and Fiona McIntosh’s Master Classes and I’ve also attended Hazel Edwards, Alison Goodman and Jen Storer courses.

I like to travel and have visited all the continents in the world except Antarctica. This allowed me to see and experience many different cultures. Another passion of mine is dancing. I have learnt many styles, jazz, tap, ballet, contemporary, funk and in the last few years I have been learning Latin American. In 2018, I completed my Gold Star medal in all dance styles, Cha Cha, Jive, Paso Doble, Rumba and Samba.

My favourite flower is the sunflower and I grow this plant every year in my garden.

My personal motto is spread sunshine and inspiration.

    Jennifer Douglas Literary Publicist

  • "Juliet M. Sampson is an author I hold in high regard as she’s very passionate about the book industry, reading and she doesn’t let the trials in her life get her down, in fact, they are inspirations to great reads she has published. I have read both her books. Behind the Mask is very well written and kept me on the edge of my seat. Bon Voyage! is a feel good story about travel."

  • "Juliet's style is compelling, and her subject matter poignant. She is a gifted author, and her passion for writing is obvious in her work. I can't wait for her next book."

    Dr. Stephen Parnis Melbourne Emergency Physician

  • "I have enjoyed both of Juliet’s books. Juliet had a dream about becoming an author, which has now been realised. The best part about this is we have benefited by her novels. Anything that can help spread the message about the horror of abuse and domestic violence is important and Juliet has done this with sensitivity and understanding."
