General Interests
My love language is words of affirmation. My motivational gift is encouragement. My personality is fun-loving and sensative--if you've ever taken the DISC test, that would make me an IS. If you haven't taken the DISC test, it basically just means that I'm emotional.
Music
I love Air 1 (I talked to D.J.s Eric and Copalia on the phone today), but I'm ready for something new. Any recommendations?
Books
If it has a pink cover, I'll read it. I used to love mystery, but I just can't seem to get through one anymore. I want a book that will make me laugh and make me cry. (I told you I'm emotional.)

Most recently I discovered Tamara Leigh. I took SPLITTING HARRIET with me to pick up the kids at school, to the gym, to my daughter's ballet class, etc... Someday I hope my writing will be just as unputdownable.

Movies/TV
I wish my life were a Disney movie. GAME PLAN and ENCHANTED are irresistable.
Published Works
Summer Shorts (2006)
My short story "The Water Fight Professional" is published in the SUMMER SHORTS anthology.

About Angela Meuser
I'm a 30-year-old married mother of three--which gives me lots of inspiration, but not much time to write. I was first nationally published in high school and went on to study journalism at the University of Oregon. I'm a contributing writer to Treasure Valley Christian News and have worked as editor for a teen mom's newsletter.

Recently I've sold articles to Encounter, Brio, Hopscotch, and an anthology titled "Summer Shorts". I've written a middle grade novel based on that short story titled "The Water Fight Professional" which will be coming out in 2010! I also have a picture book under consideration. My women's fiction manuscript "Fake Blonde" is being represented by Hartline Literary and I've been getting good feedback, but no sale yet. And I just finished my chick lit "Lighten Up". Come on over and visit me at my blog http://angela-lightenup.blogspot.com

Besides writing, my favorite things to do are watch my kids bellyflop at swimming lessons, watch movies with my hubby (though we can never agree on our favorites), and scrapbook with friends. I also work as an aerobics instructor. My husband and I are very involved in FOCUS and UPWARD--ministries that have changed our lives.

Author Interview: Tina Ann Forkner   5/26/2008 - 5:31 PM
Tina Ann Forkner's debut novel Ruby Among Us is a powerful and introspective read. As I told Tina, it took me a while to get into it because it had me crying on the first few pages, and I usually prefer sassy stories with a pink cover. I'm so glad ... (login or sign up to read more)

My first book   5/20/2008 - 3:38 PM
At a church picnic a few summers ago, my son Jordan wanted to join in the water fighting that was going on, so I gave him a cup of water and told him to go dump it on his dad. My husband saw him coming and offered him a dollar to dump the same cup o... (login or sign up to read more)

Thank you for your interest, Angela! I'd be interested in your opinion of my novel excerpt -- and there is quite a bit of information about Mormonism on my Web site-- www.latayne.com. Bless you too. Yours and His, Latayne

Hi, sweet Angela!

I've been meaning to tell you your new profile pic is adorable. Of course, any pic you'd post would be cute!

Are you having a busy Saturday? Mine will be filled with lots of running around and tons of at-home errands.

Hugs and Blessings,
Shar

I just read your question about Beth's Amish book ... she wrote for twenty years of rejections, then sat down at a really hard time in her life and wrote the Amish story when her agent asked her to try something different. Within weeks of finishing the first three chapters, Thomas Nelson offered a contract and wanted pitches for two more books. :-) It is enough to make you jealous, huh? ;-)

Thanks for the friend request Angela!

I don't think Windstorm does short fiction, but you could check out their website. They're restructuring their company and changing their name soon. I'm not actually with them anymore. They're okay and all, but I'll be looking for a different publisher for my second book...
Matthew Peterson on 10/16/08 - 11:15 PM
I've run into your profile twice now today, so I thought I'd wish you a wonderful day. Good luck on the writing!

Hi Angela! All is well. Busy, but well! How about you?
Robin Lee Hatcher on 10/10/08 - 9:31 PM
Oh, whew. I wasn't thinking local. I was thinking something on-line with ACFW, and I was certain I hadn't opted in for on-line teaching. Yes, you are on my calendar for the conference. Excuse the fuzzy head. This bug is getting really old. I hope I'm better soon too.

Deborah Finley What Your Future Holds on 10/10/08 - 11:21 AM
Oh, Well, since Gods ways and thoughts are
higher than ours we'll have to ask him
what he thinks about it: There's such
power in prayer and
Sometimes though people say no
God says yes, and they change their mind.
God has shown me that to be true.
So be encouraged my friend!

Let us run the race that is set before us,
with patience, looking unto JESUS,
the author and finisher of our faith.
Robin Lee Hatcher on 10/10/08 - 10:12 AM
Hi, Angela. So glad you like the cover for A Vote of Confidence. I think it is my favorite cover ever (of my books), and I've had some wonderful ones.

Hmm. What am I teaching in January and where? I'm drawing a blank. Can't remember signing up for anything but I've been sick for a week now.

Deborah Finley What Your Future Holds on 10/10/08 - 7:29 AM
Hmmm interesting, who's the publisher?
Deborah Finley What Your Future Holds on 10/09/08 - 11:49 PM
Hi Angela,
Tee Hee!That's funny! You could say, I'm a bit challenged in that area Tee Hee! But not that time, it was just meant to be funny. I'll have to try again tomorrow to see the interview with your husband.
I'm working on a childrens fiction book right now, though it is based on a true story, I'm very excited about it but
its been a long day so i'm hitting the hay.Have a blessed rest.
Deborah Finley What Your Future Holds on 10/09/08 - 9:33 AM
Yes, I am. Tee Hee! It's my sense of
humor, which is sometimes dry and which is hard to see through emails, "My motto is, "Life is too short to be too serious." I had enough of that. But seriously, the movie was great, so you need to go and see it!

Let us run the race that is set before us, with patience, looking unto JESUS,
the author and finisher of our faith.
Deborah Finley What Your Future Holds on 10/09/08 - 5:22 AM
Hi Angela,
I was trying to get to the site to see your
interview with your husband but it brings you back t shoutlife
is there another way?

Let us run the race that is set before us,
with patience, looking unto JESUS,
the author and finisher of our faith.
Deborah Finley What Your Future Holds on 10/09/08 - 5:12 AM
Hi Angela
Happy Thursday!
Have you seen Fireproof yet?
It's excellent! if you haven't seen it yet
you can bring the kids over tomorrow
and I'll watch them so you and your honey
can go see it.

Let us run the race that is set before us,
with patience, looking unto JESUS,
the author and finisher of our faith.
Janet Chester Bly on 10/06/08 - 10:43 PM
Greetings, Angela! Thanks for the note and signing me in on the IDAhope Writers yahoo group. We'd be delighted to join your Boise group sometime, if it works out. When in January is your conference?
Blessings,
Janet
