TJ Reeder
Storyteller/Author
How It All Began...
My journey as a storyteller began when I was going through difficult times. I was surprised to find a creative outlet in writing and I quickly discovered a passion for it. Drawing from my background as a competitive shooter, law enforcement officer, and Marine, I write about what I know and the things I have experienced. With my stories, I hope to entertain, educate, and inspire. Check out my website to read more of my stories and join me on my journey!
The Art of Surviving.
The Complete Story
(2023)
My purpose for writing this book was to show that a thinking person can not only survive but live well in a world gone crazy. Live well, of course, meaning compared to most. I wanted to show that one didn't need Bill Gates's checkbook to build a place to survive. At the same time, one isn't going to do it on the change found in the couch cushions. It will take time and smart living. Rome wasn't built overnight but it was pretty much destroyed about that fast.

Audio Books
I'm just beginning this "audiobook" thing, but hopefully there will be more here before too long!
I've read a lot of TJ Reeder stories, and I'm afraid they are actually accurate to the things going on in our country. Not only are they accurate, they are also very entertaining. I hope he keeps telling these stories. -Rick "Beware Sleeping Dragons"
The author has a folksy way of telling a story, if you like to be entertained, just enjoy the story because it's good. It's the first survival/prepper book I have read where the main character can kill some worthless piece of trash without getting nauseated or analyzing it to death. As he would say, "what's done is done". I like him and the person who is to become his companion. At last, a woman who can shoot and bake. If you've ever read westerns by Louis L'Amour, and have enjoyed his descriptions of the countryside, you'll like this... -Angela "A Long, Lonely Road" Book 1
Praise & Reviews
Mr. Reeder's books never disappoint. Like many others have stated, I'd read anything he writes. His books are educational, and entertaining. His humor always makes me chuckle. His characters are well-developed, but that happens throughout the action, and that avoids long, boring passages. The plots are always engaging. -MP "The Art of Surviving"
As usual, this is a TJ Reeder book, that I just had to finish without putting it down. Like I keep saying in almost all my reviews, he is definitely one of my top three authors currently publishing anything. Anytime I'm bored or don't know what to read next, I just scroll through all his books in my library, knowing that I will find something to re-read. -Ian "The Valley"
I really enjoyed this book. I'm not big into revenge books, but this one I couldn't put down. I'm more into prepper or collapse books, as I'm aware this author is known for. I'd really like to see at least one more in this series, and it would be awesome if it went into the end of the world as we know it situation. After all, they have already started working towards it with buying guns, ammo, and gold, and even have the perfect set-up started with the house and property. Come on, Mr. Reeder, give us another one. -Linda "Intended Consequences" Book 1
TJ did it again! Another great story. It's an apocalypse of a different type. The characters are real and likable. You care about them and worry them through their trials in this new world. Thanks TJ! Loved it and can't wait till the wind blows again. -MsgtUSAF (RET) "When Dark Winds Blow
