“Everybody asks me why I’m smiling out from ear to ear”

• About Jovian Zayne

  "Write what your heart tells you to write and own it."

  --------

  My entire life I've been told I can become someone's best friend in under 10 minutes. It took some time but I've realized this gift isn't about developing useless friendships, but about establishing meaningful relationships across lines of differences and discovering the true essence of our nature that drives our connections.

  Word Up, Haay is our exploration of these connections from music to romantic relationships to our shared love of bacon. (b/c of course you too love bacon)

  ---------
  Join me and the rest of the Word Up, Haay as we talk about everything from God and education to Kim Kardashian's ass. We'll gallivant around the world jumping on impromptu tours with Janelle Monáe and my Wondaland family, 100 days of weddings and baby showers, discussions about education reform, race, romantic encounters and of course the inevitable delights of New York's Pinkberry locations and regular subway ridiculousness... Word Up? Haaaay!

  Strawberry shakes & fries,
  Jovian Zayne
