AWARD-WINNING and BEST-SELLING Author Jordan Standridge is still diligently working to keep her fans happy and in suspense...or in love. Her journey has just begun.
An avid reader and writer since childhood, Jordan is joyfully expanding her literary sphere to her novels. Influenced by Walter Farley and Louis L'Amour growing up, and later Julie Garwood, Jordan now creates her own stories.
Weaving many of her real-life experiences with her imagination, she infuses them with her humor, love for animals, life lessons, values, a quiet theme of faith, and then some true romance. Next, she'll probably add in a dash of mystery or suspense because she can.
A frequent traveler and mover, Jordan currently lives near Lexington, Kentucky, USA.

An author friend of mine told me, "They will never be perfect!" But a perfectionist is hard to convince. So I aim for perfection, strive for excellence, and (try to) accept what is. lol(less)

Both have to do with black horses: Black Beauty and The Black Stallion.

For Beauty, I'd do whatever I could do to start the humane treatment of horses (and other animals) the world over earlier than when it got started in real life. (This book actually did start the movement.) Anna Sewell and I would've been great advocates working together!

For The Black, what a thrill it would've been to be there, and see that race in person! Seabiscuit and War Admiral, Foolish Pleasure and Ruffian... Modern match races (even if one had not ended tragically) would be hard to compare to an unknown horse who took on the greatest horses of the time, and win. A true underdog story that kickstarted a new life of adventures for The Black and Alec.

Although I have personal feelings on racing (lifelong equestrian that included racing), there *is* a beautiful thrill in watching horses run. The grace, the power, the heart. I just prefer them to run without manipulation. (less)

My Personal 6 E’s to Writing

In honor of the recent Olympic games, I thought I’d borrow their rings for this realization I had. While I was getting ready to work on my next upcoming books (Yes…There are more coming!), it just out of the blue came to me that when I write, I use some of the same motivations. As […]

This is the third book. If the other two are as good as this one then I really need to find them and read them. Excellent story, background is great and the ending is even better. Thank you to the author. " Read more of this review »

“It took Ty to make her realize it. It took time to allow herself to accept it. It took courage for her to make the decision to change. She was scared stiff.- The Secret”

“He thought he'd take a chance since fate seemed to be on their side tonight. It wouldn't hurt to ask. It'd only hurt if she said no. -The Secret”
Jordan Standridge

“Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'WOW--What a ride!”
Hunter Thompson
