About

Jess Koch is an author of short stories, flash fiction, poetry, and is currently working on a novel. She primarily writes in the vein of horror or dark speculative fiction.

Jess is of German, Irish, French, and Native American descent, among others. She grew up on an island off the coast of Maine and her work is deeply influenced by the fishing villages, jagged coast, and pine forests of her childhood. She now lives in a pre-civil war colonial somewhere in New England with her partner, dog, and probably a few ghosts.
