Reimena Yee is a graphic novelist, artist and flamingo enthusiast.

She writes and illustrates quite a few webcomics and graphic novels. When not making books, she lulls away her time with essays on craft, life and experiences in the publishing industry.

Currently committed to being Alexander the Great's death doula. Is a nerd for all things spooky and historical.
