Jessica Campbell is a writer, a malcontent, an aspiring hermit, a compulsive list-maker, an occasional misanthrope, a wife, a mother…wait…yes, really, a mother, an inveterate contrarian, a curmudgeon, a daydream believer, a closet Monkees fan, a fabulist, a nail-biter, a recovering teacher’s pet, a skeptic, a frustrated despot—did I mention compulsive list-maker?—a neatnik, a wannabe ninja, and the only one in the house who ever washes the damn dishes.
