About Charlotte

Charlotte Coplin (b. 1992 in Christchurch, New Zealand) is an author of stories that are mystical, modern and a little mischievous (think magical realism with a wink!). She is currently at work revising her debut novel whilst beginning her second.

Before pursuing her dream of writing fiction, Charlotte built a career as a freelance copywriter, lifestyle journalist and non-fiction author. Her writing life has since been shaped by international writing residencies at Noce Fresca in Sardinia and The Weymouth Center in North Carolina, with a forthcoming residency at Cycladic Arts in Paros, Greece in 2026. She is a graduate of a selective Curtis Brown Creative novel-writing course and is a trained teacher in the Gateless Writing method. Her first book, How to Be Fabulous: Secondhand Style on a Shoestring, was published by Affirm Press in 2023.

Not only does Charlotte write about mysticism, she lives it. Alongside her fiction she is a gifted astrologer offering birth chart readings to fellow creatives and entrepreneurs who want to connect more deeply with their truest selves. When she isn’t writing or reading the stars, she loves scouring for vintage treasures, watching Old Hollywood films, reading loads of books, travelling the globe, improving her Italian, or attempting to learn Greek.

She believes in finding the beauty, humour and unseen magic in the every day, a belief she carries into her writing and into the rest of her life. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband - alongside a couple of ghosts from Old Hollywood’s heyday.
