Jessika Fleck is a writer, unapologetic coffee drinker, and knitter who sincerely hopes to one day discover a way to do all three at once. Until then, she continues collecting vintage typewriters, dreaming of an Icelandic getaway, and working as an archivist at an old, probably haunted, research building. She has lived all over the U.S. from Hawaii to Vermont, but currently lives in Illinois, where she's learning to appreciate the beauty in cornfields and terrifyingly large cicadas. She resides there with her sociology professor husband, two very cool teenage kids, and a mini menagerie of pets. She is the author of Beware the Night, Defy the Sun, The Castaways, and Molly and the Twin Towers: a 9/11 Survival Story.
