About Janelle Yau

I’m a girl who believes that her brain is filled with rainbows, unicorns, glitters, and gold stars! I use my imagination ALL the time and I refuse to ever stay somber… well, not all the way at least. I am occasionally a shrieker, sometimes a blogger, oftentimes a dreamer but forever and always a fighter.
