Who Is Authoress Janae Washington

CO-CEO/Publisher On The Rise Media

Janae Washington is a Black American authoress born in Los Angeles, California in the mid 1980’s. She began reading and writing at an early age, and at eight began writing poetry. Her love for writing grew as she got older. Professionally she aspired to be a book writer, an obstetrician and a fashion designer! After achieving her Bachelor’s Degree in Fashion Design and Marketing, she decided that she wanted to dedicate her life to inspiring other little girls and boys to be anything they wanted to be and to empower them with love and confidence. She remembered her early childhood years being the girl that hated her appearance and extremely insecure, so she went on a quest to help build up the next generation of little ladies and gentlemen.

With her first book “Bye Bye Black Skin,” published in 2017, she set out to reach millions and help them love themselves as they are. “This is a self love book about a little girl who experiences bullying and teasing due to her skin color. As a result of that, she doesn’t think she’s beautiful. Her mother consoles her and helps build her self esteem by giving her a relatable story and she ends teaching it to the boy that teased her.”

As a talented author, Janae hopes with every book you are inspired to live a purposeful life. In her second book, “The Dad Assignment”, she writes a story about a little adopted boy who is frustrated because he does not fit in with his friends whom all have their biological fathers. His dad tells him a story of how he grew up without a father and hid vow to help other little “fatherless” boys. It is a story of triumph and empowerment.

Her third book “Rocki Reed Adventures Exploring Volcanoes” began a new writing journey for her. Rocki Reed is a character created to be inclusive and multi-faceted in Children’s literary work. She has traveled and met friends in many spaces with many different faces and she has stories to share from those experiences. Oh, and she loves to rhyme.

“Rocki Reed” is not just a character but also a diverse Children’s Book series written by Janae Washington. Beyond exploring volcanoes the series features a rambunctious 8 year old who loves math and science. Having recently moved to a new town with her parents and baby brother Ayo, she is very nervous about school, but bravely takes on the challenge and finds a new teacher and new friends.

Rocki returns in “Rocki Reed Adventures Camping Skills!” In this book, Rocki and her grandparents Mimi and Papa Reed explore the great unknowns of the forest and discover how much the Earth contributes to keep humans alive. Her grandparents teach her all of the dos and don’ts about camping, and they even make marshmallow smores!
