The Story of Me

I keep a sticky note on my laptop that says, “I just want to do good work and write stuff that matters.” I mean that from the bottom of my glitter well. My name is Janelle Harris Dixon, I write jump-off-the-page content that connects with the human beings who read it, and I believe in the limitless power of effervescent, well-crafted writing. I’ll make you a believer too.
