Julianne Baclayanto
I’m a hopeless romantic who loves to write books filled with anticipation, butterflies, and an abundance of fun.
After being frequently described as "overly chatty" by family, friends and teachers alike, I decided to commit some of those never ending words to paper and write the kind of stories that make your heart skip a beat.
I live in Ontario, Canada with my wonderful husband and beautiful new baby, and can probably be found rage-quitting Mario Kart whenever I’m not writing.

A long bio can be kind of boring, so instead I'm going to pretend

that a famous journalist (maybe Barbara Walters) is interviewing me.
The only thing is, I'm making up the questions.
If you think of any other questions you'd like me to answer, send me an email and ask away!
Q. Where did you grow up?
A. I lived in Fairfield, Connecticut until the end of fifth grade and then I moved to Roslyn Heights, New York. That's on Long Island. But I don't have a bad Lawn Guyland accent, I promise.
Q. Do you have any siblings?
A. Yes, I have two younger brothers. I always wanted a sister, but it's kind of nice being the only daughter in the family, and my brothers and I are really close.
Q. What about the rest of your family? Are you close with them too?
