As a writer-creator, Laura J Harris is drawn to emotionally rich, character-led stories with heart, danger and bite — stories where power shifts, identities fracture, and the silenced or overlooked step into the light.

Her work often moves between historical drama, psychological tension and mythic resonance, with a strong focus on bold female perspectives, emotional truth, and the cost of survival, love and rebellion. Whether writing for page or screen, she is interested in the stories people inherit, the stories they resist, and the stories they dare to rewrite.

Her current projects include Flame of the Iceni, a female-led historical drama set in Roman Britain; Splintered, a crime thriller adapted from her novel; and Lord, What Fools These Mortals Be, an LGBTQ+ historical crossover novel with a Shakespearean twist.

Rooted in a lifelong love of theatre, literature, screen drama and epic myth, Laura’s writing seeks to combine cinematic scale with emotional intimacy, creating work that is vivid, questioning and alive.
