Born in Alexandria, Virginia, Angela Millsap learned early on that life is an adventure. She livedin several different countries during her elementary years, including Singapore and GreatBritain, absorbing folklore and mythology wherever she went. No matter how hard she tries, itkeeps leaking out into her writing. A classic sci-fi nerd, she became a Trekkie in high school, then completed an MS in Aerospace Engineering because that seemed the best way to becomea real life space explorer. Her first published work, a small satellite formation flying picture bookfull of Matlab graphs and illustrations, was the unfortunate result. Fortunately, exploration of theunknown, whether that be the kitchen junk drawer or the wilds of Peru, continues to be a dailypart of her life. She lives in Utah with her family, several goats, a shaggy dog, and seasonalcantankerous cheeses.You can follow Angela on her website, www.angelamillsap.com, for writing updates and traveladvice. Or maybe writing advice and travel updates. One can never be too certain.
