Biography

[edit]

Sumino started writing in high school.[5] She initially submitted a story for the Dengeki Novel Prize, however after not making it past the first round of selection, Sumino revised her writing style before writing I Want to Eat Your Pancreas; the manuscript ended up being too long to be submitted for the prize.[4]

She submitted the novel to the user-generated fiction website Shōsetsuka ni Narō in February 2014 under the pen name Yasumi Yano (夜野やすみ, Yano Yasumi).[4] She later officially debuted with the same work under Futabasha in 2015.[6]
