G.L. Harper is an award-winning screenwriter and author who believes every child deserves to see their biggest feelings reflected in the stories they read.
Growing up across multiple continents meant constantly navigating what it means to belong in spaces where you don't quite fit the mold. New schools, new accents, new rules — and always the quiet question of where do I belong? But amid all that movement, one thing remained constant: family. No matter where life took them, home was never a place — it was the people. That foundation, nurtured by parents who instilled a quiet confidence in belonging, taught an invaluable lesson: our differences and experiences don't set us apart — they make us who we are. Each of us, unique in our own way.
The Julie Jamrock series is born from these memories. Julie's adventures explore the invisible struggles children carry — the anxieties they can't always name, the mistakes they fear will define them, and the brave small moments that help them find their footing. These are stories for children who feel too much in a world that sometimes asks them to feel less.
When not writing, G.L. can be found composing music nobody asked for, rearranging furniture for the third time this month, dreaming up new adventures for Julie, and finding stories hidden in the ordinary — in a child's hesitation at the gate of a new school, in the silence after an apology, in the courage it takes to try again.
G.L. Harper writes under the banner of Jamrock Publishing: Big feelings. Bright stories. Brave kids.
