Hi, I‘m Claudia, an Australian author living in Vienna, Austria. My writing aims to bring mythology and folklore to life through the lens of history.

Currently, I‘m writing a novel series, with the first book set in Mesolithic Britain. In 2023, I submitted a condensed version of my manuscript to the Young Storyteller Award and won a place among the Top 20.

Quotes by Claudia Merrill (?)

“There comes a time when you must choose a path. To walk toward knowledge and truth, or to turn away toward earthly matters.”

“There was no way of seeing forward, and no way back, only a trail ahead. Worn by the ancestors and those that came before. With tentative feet she would have to walk it, whether she liked it or not.”

“Everything was moving. Light emanated from the smallest blade of grass to the largest trunk of a tree. Bathed in light the world seemed alive, teeming with life. She was in the stream, the stream of all things.”
