Yanne has a Bachelor’s in Japanese Studies (with focus on classical literature) and is currently earning her Master’s degree in Literary Studies. Inspired by her love of words and traveling the world, Yanne speaks Estonian, English, Japanese, and a little bit of Russian. When she is not writing, she makes a living as an editor and coaches other writers on how to use language to express their innermost selves.
Combining her passion for writing with her love of helping others, Yanne also incorporates important themes into her novels, such as women’s empowerment, trauma and disability awareness, grief, and self-love. In short, her touching novels show life problems with a dash of hope – perfect for anyone looking to deepen their relationships with loved ones and themselves. As a pansexual woman with autoimmune disorders and chronic pain, Yanne knows firsthand how important it is to be a healer spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Her mission is to be a beacon of light in a dark world, reminding others that they are not alone.
(Just ask her beloved rescue cat, Aaren, who took 50 weeks before he allowed her to pet him!)
