by Ann Angel
Editor Ann Angel has written biographies for educational markets but has focused on her true obsession, young adult fiction, since graduating in 1999 from Vermont College’s MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults program. She has taught as a writer/counselor for the National Book Foundation’s summer writing program and teaches journalism and creative writing at Mount Mary College in Milwaukee, where she lives with her husband and whichever of her four young adult kids happen to be home. Ann defines beauty as “family, friends, and sometimes even strangers connecting in a meaningful way. It is the way writers, both new and known, joined together out of friendship and mentoring to bring their beautiful art into the world for this book.” Visit Ann at www.annangelwriter.com.
