✅

You could pass author_id to serializer save() method: 

elif request.method == 'POST':
    data = JSONParser().parse(request)
    serializer = serializers.ArticlesSerializer(data=data)
    if serializer.is_valid():
        serializer.save(author=author.id)

One advice, Django Rest Framework allows you write less more code. You don’t need regular Django views with JSONParser, JsonResponse etc.
Use APIView class or api_view decorator instead or even use viewsets it can reduce the function lines to 5-6
