ABOUT ME

Martha Jane Orlando fell in love with the Nantahala Mountains of North Carolina when her husband, Danny, and she stayed there on their honeymoon.  The majestic scenery, sparkling streams, and wooded trails create the perfect backdrop for her 6 books, The Glade Series (books 1-3) and Adventures in the Glade (books 4-6).


Martha Jane is a former middle school teacher (1998-2010) and an English graduate from Emory University who has a son and a daughter, and two stepsons, all grown.  She is well acquainted with the challenges and joys of a blended family, and many of the situations described in 'The Glade Series' and 'Adventures in the Glade' mirror her own personal experiences.


Aside from writing fiction, Martha Jane also pens a bi-weekly devotional blog, which you can visit at

​

She has created a fan page which you can visit at

Your comments and feedback are warmly welcomed!
 

And, Martha Jane wants you to know that her home, nestled in the forest, will ever be a place where squirrels reign supreme.
