Karla Jordan

I want my readers to know that my books are completely human written; not AI generated. Love, sweat and tears all go into each and every one of my books.

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

I'm a historical fiction author with a passion for uncovering the hidden voices of the past. Echoes from Jericho Creek is my third novel, following Cartwheels in the Dark and The Road to Marietta. Each story is rooted in my deep love for history, storytelling, and the quiet strength of those who dared to defy injustice.

I write to explore the moments that history books sometimes overlook — the personal, the painful, the brave. Whether it’s a young woman escaping a plantation or someone in the present uncovering generational truths, I’m drawn to stories that connect the past to the present.

When I’m not writing, I love wandering through historical places, sitting by a quiet creek with a notebook, or meeting readers who share a love for meaningful stories.

I live in Central Florida, and I’d love to connect — especially with readers, book clubs, and fellow writers. Thanks so much for stopping by!
