Jaidyn Groth


Best described as ‘a unicorn in pyjamas’, Jaidyn spends most of her days consuming too much coffee, writing and travelling around her home country of Australia. She is lucky enough to be working as a hiking tour guide in the middle of a global pandemic, which is a sentence she never thought she’d write. 

She is currently working on several YA contemporary novels that deep-dive into the teenage experience, as well as a few other projects that bring her joy, while also making her want to tear out her hair.

When she’s not up all night thinking of ways that her characters can be delayed in their victories, she is often found dancing in forests, hugging trees or attempting to run 5km without breaking an ankle.

Jaidyn’s two unpublished YA manuscripts have been shortlisted across five categories in the Page Turner 2021 Awards!
