Yana is a writer based in England. Her debut novel was shortlisted for Pen to Print’s Book Challenge 2025.
Knowing first-hand how connecting with characters can fill the gaps of love in your own life, she likes to write about messy heroines, alluring villains and disillusioned people finding love across genres. She has a soft spot for the paranormal romance era having grown up on Twilight and LJ Smith, and is an Austenite.
Outside of story telling she loves lifting weights, watching sports (basketball and F1 especially) and lazing in the sun.
