"Jordan has a way of capturing the feeling of loss, grief, anxiety, and the sense of nothingness—numbness—in a single story. The story is meta, and the fragments of past, present and future are jumbled much like the emotions, but somehow beautifully connect and intertwine like lovers joining hands. A must read, 'From the Other Side' is as chaotic and tranquil as a wave crashing to shore."

Leslie Gonzalez, Fiction Editor
"As a writer Jordan weaves vividly detailed imagery with a deep sense of a character’s inner life. She is unafraid to take the reader to abstract places, and her inclusion of incorporeal forms and hints of spirituality gives her work a mythological resonance."

Jade Green, oranges journal
"It touched our soul, shifted our gaze, and offered a new perspective."

The Plentitudes Journal
"I loved this concept and felt the suspense and panic along with Aliyah as she descended into the cenote. I also appreciated the strong narrative arc—the author managed to throw in quite a few twists in only a few pages. Carefully crafted and a joy to read. Another ending that brought me to tears."

Elizabeth Copps, Literary Agent
"Jordan writes with clarity and concision, without sacrificing heart, in her engaging story."

Lauren Hobson, Kithe Journal
"Jordan has blessed us with a fun and heartfelt story that provokes a meaningful thought about the choices we make and the life we truly want to lead."

Daniel Cockrell, the holon project
"An atmospheric short story with lush descriptions that brings you fully into the scene. Petals and Ash isn't a long piece, but it packs a powerful punch and is a testament to Nishkian's talent as a writer."

Alexander Rigby, Allegory Ridge
