Angela Wilson has been writing since second grade, when she turned a one paragraph writing prompt into a 4-page action-adventure story (hand written, both sides). She is published in multiple short story anthologies and is a two-time finalist in the NYC Midnight challenge.
Even though she loves epic fantasy, she is passionate about teaching the secret advantages of writing flash fiction. When the world shut down during 2020, she found the NYC Midnight competition and a new passion was born. Capturing jaw-dropping moments in under 1,000 words not only gives readers a punchy experience, but also creates a playground for writers to master technique.
She has raised 4 kids, is an avid gardener, spent 4 years as an over-the-road truck driver, and currently homeschools her 12-year-old son while caring for her first grandchild. Thankfully, her amazing husband is also a fan of navigating chaos. She currently lives in Salt Lake Valley, but someday plans to retire in a small town where life moves a little slower. Marysvale anyone?
