JM Cliff

Two Writers. One Shared Passion.

Chelsea Judy and Amanda Matula (jointly known as JM Cliff) were born in southern California at the tail end of the 1980s. They grew up just miles apart in Irvine. The girls met in middle school and bonded over their love of horses, literature, and all things Harry Potter. They began writing what would later become The Dark Pilgrim in high school.


Fast forward just a few years to now. 

Chelsea and Amanda each followed their passions pursuing their educations sometimes on opposite ends of the globe. Amanda now resides in Colorado, while Chelsea’s higher education brought her to Australia. Though thousands of miles separate them, they continue to pour their hearts and souls into The Flight of the Lionheart series.
