ABOUT JAVACIA HARRIS BOWSER

Javacia Harris Bowser is an award-winning freelance journalist and the author of the essay collection Find Your Way Back: How to Write Your Way Through Anything. In Birmingham, she’s best known as the founder of See Jane Write, which a friend of hers once called “the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pens.” See Jane Write is a website and community for women who write and blog that Javacia founded in 2011 in her hometown of Birmingham, Alabama. Today, See Jane Write serves and brings together women from across the country and around the world. Named one of Birmingham’s Top 40 Under 40, Javacia believes we can all write our way to the life of our dreams – a message she often conveys to the women of See Jane Write. When she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020, she learned how to write her way through her worst nightmare, too.

Javacia was included in Southern Living magazine’s list of Innovators Changing the South, alongside household names like Dolly Parton and Reese Witherspoon and is a recipient of the 2022 Alabama State Council on the Arts Fellowship. With a focus on women’s lifestyle, wealth, and wellness, Javacia has written for a number of local, regional and national media outlets including USA Today, Business Insider, HerMoney.com, Good Grit magazine, and The Birmingham Times.

Javacia is a proud graduate of the journalism programs at the University of Alabama and the University of California at Berkeley.

When she isn’t writing, you can find Javacia reading books, eating tacos, listening to Beyoncé or spending time with her husband Edward.
