Goodnight Middle School student becomes published author

Samantha Jordan, a seventh-grade student at Goodnight Middle School, described the last few weeks as “crazy.”

Jordan, 12, recently became a published author, with her book “Owl Eyes” now available for purchase online on Amazon.

“It's crazy because people are actually like buying it off of Amazon and then they're wanting it to be autographed and everything,” Jordan said. “They're just giving me such positive feedback. It's really made me proud because people actually like my story, they like to read it. One of my friends keeps reading the book over and over again just for the fun of it. It just makes me feel really good about what I wrote.”
