 L. K. McReynolds is the author of the Jorden's Adventures book series — fast-moving mysteries starring 12-year-old Jorden and his fearless friends as they chase down clues, unravel secrets, and stumble into real bits of history along the way. These stories are crafted for young teens but written to hook readers of any age. 

After putting the pen down for years, L. K. picked it back up at 58, balancing writing with life as the full-time caretaker of her elderly parents — a role she embraces as their only child. When she’s not writing, she’s traveling with no set destination, always chasing something new to learn or explore. Her stories reflect that spirit: curious, heartfelt, and always on the move.

On top of that, I’m gearing up to dive into a whole new project: books for the 3–5 year old crowd. I’m excited, but let’s be real,...

Frustrated, Tired, and Still Standing  The past few days have tested

The past few days have tested me in every possible way. What started as excitement, launching a new ad campaign for my Facebook Author page, quickly spiraled into stress and confusion.

I appealed. Again. And again. It felt like I was fighting a ghost. Finally, after way too much time, I realized the whole thing was a scam — a fake message from some spammer trying to mess with me. It wasn’t real. But the stress definitely was.

I’...
