Biography
Karen Avivi writes young adult fiction that spotlights adventurous, athletic female protagonists. Her debut novel Shredded won the inaugural SCBWI Spark Award, recognizing excellence in independently published children's literature.

Personal experience in adventure sports and activities including surfing, skydiving, scuba diving, stunt classes, archery, winter camping, orienteering, mountaineering, and mountain biking inform Avivi’s work. She even attempted a bike ramp once, but it didn’t end well.

Beyond Shredded, Avivi contributed to the anthology Stories for Amanda, further showcasing her commitment to crafting stories that inspire and engage readers. Avivi resides in Atlantic Canada, where she continues to write and seek out new adventures.
