Karla Jordan

I’m proud to say that I have won two awards for The Road to Marietta.

I write historical fiction and small town mysteries about the hidden voices of the past and the quiet strength of people who dared to defy injustice. My novels include, The Road to Marietta, Echoes From Jericho Creek and Cartwheels in the Dark. I'm currently working on a new novel connected to The Road to Marietta.

I also create books for younger readers, including My First Reading Passport, a reading adventure activity books that helps kids explore and discover the joy of reading. I've also created three coloring books around a moose character that I call "Maine Moose". There will be more adventures with this character in the future.

When I'm not writing, I love wandering through historical places, sitting in nature with a notebook or meeting readers who share a love of meaningful stories. Of course I love reading also.

I live in Maine and I'd love to connect with readers, book clubs and fellow writers. You can find my books and trailers at karlawjordan.
