I grew up on the Gulf Coast of Texas and spent most of my youth in, on or near the water.My father was a fisherman that always had a paperback Louis L'amour in his back pocket. My mother would read anything and everything she could get her hands on.My own personal love of reading and writing began at a very young age. I would spend hours at the local library checking out as many books as they would allow.I write under the names K.R. Jordan or River Jordan. Mostly I write fiction, but I am obsessed with writing a personal history of my family.I still live on the Gulf Coast of Texas with my family and I enjoy writing, reading, fishing and the great outdoors!
