J.J. Campbell

JJ Campbell is an author with a diverse background that informs her creative work. She has published novels such as "Reclaimed," drawing inspiration from her fascination with myths, legends, and the natural world. Her writing process is intuitive, often beginning with a single word or concept before allowing her characters and their stories to unfold organically.

Before dedicating herself to writing, Campbell led an unconventional life, working as a social worker, roadie, backing singer, dance teacher, hypnotherapist, and psychic. These varied experiences contribute to the depth and authenticity of her storytelling. She balances her writing career with teaching yoga, maintaining a connection to movement and mindfulness.

Campbell's upbringing was marked by resilience - she describes herself as having been "raised by wolves" yet graduated high school with honors. After years in factory work and an attempt at farm life, she now resides in suburbia, where she channels her eclectic past into her fiction. Her works reflect a blend of imagination and lived experience, inviting readers into vividly realized worlds.
