Winter of the Crystal Dances, and Orion

Well, the new book is begun and I’ve already written more than 4000 words - yay! So far, Evy and her adventures with Smokey (I may change his name - in fact, I’m positive I’ll change his name) are fun and cool and very different!

I haven’t been on the blog much or done much with the website for a while, as you’ve probably noticed, but I know you guys would rather I be writing books for you instead of updating the website. Thanks for your wonderful patience!

On Monday, Orion had a bad fall while we were out riding and cut up her legs, plus banged one leg up so that its all swollen. I must admit that I was just glad that she walked away from the accident without more injuries! I didn’t even mind the long walk home, because I was so glad that she was walking beside me. She’s healing up amazingly fast and her cuts are half the size they were two days ago, plus much of the swelling has gone down. She still has some healing to do though. Send loving thoughts her way!

    Heal up fast, Orion, girl! Angela, I can’t wait for the new book!


  2. Gabrielle Says:

    We love Orion! Get well quickly! I’m really excited about the new book, Angela.

    Mirriam, did you get my message in the other blog?


  3. Mirriam Says:

    When will the ‘our story’ be named and ‘finished?’


  4. Brittany Says:

    Awww!!! Poor girl! Give her a hug and carrot for me would you? Hope she heals up soon! I can’t wait for the books to come out!


  5. Angela Dorsey Says:

    Thanks for your well-wishing, guys! Orion is healing nicely. In a week, she’ll be as good as new.

    I copied the latest Our Story out so that its ready for editing, so hopefully soon, Mirriam!


  6. Mirriam Says:

    Woohoo! And Gabrielle, I didn’t get your message, but I’ll go look right now! I’m watching Ever After. Great movie!


  7. Mirriam Says:

    Amanda? The email given to me didn’t work. I”m sorry! Angela, could we re-try?


  8. Gabrielle Says:

    Mirriam, how’s your book coming along?


  9. Gabrielle Says:

    Hey Mirriam, I was just on your site and you said your best friend’s name was Shiloh. By any chance is she a member of GHC? Cause I just met a girl named Shiloh on there. That would be so weird!


  10. Mirriam Says:

    Hi, Gabrielle! My book’s coming along great - 80+ pages so far! Awesome, huh? I’m still voting for your GHC story! No, Shiloh isn’t all that into horses… but I love her just the same! :) I hope you liked my site! Didja?


  11. Amanda Says:

    It may not have worked because of the upper case letters. Try it again in all lower case letters and maybe that will fix it?


  12. Gabrielle Says:

    I really liked it. I didn’t have time to read all of your story, though, because I was supposed to be in bed asleep :)


  13. Rachel D. Says:

    Hey Mirriam! Have you been on Horse Isle Lately?

    Oh, Gabrielle, how is the GHC Junior Blogging coming along? I was just on GHC, the muck the pile give aways are really exciting!


  14. Mirriam Says:

    Yeah I have, Rachel! Yesterday, actually! I’ll give your idea a whirl, Amanda!


  15. Gabrielle Says:

    I have to get one more blog and then I’ll be eligible, then I have to wait for an opening on the roster *fingers crossed*


  16. Stephenie Says:

    I hope Orion heals fast. Can’t wait for the new book! Is it for HA or the other series your working on?


  17. Mirriam Says:

    Woohoo! I just felt like doing that. :)


  18. Mirriam Says:

    GABRIELLE! YOU WON THE MUCK THE PILE GIVEAWAY! YOU’RE HORSEANGEL05, RIGHT? YOU WON!!! I JUST SAW IT!!! CONGRATS!!! YEEE-HAW FOR YOU, GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


  19. Gabrielle Says:

    Uh…I’m Horsewhispers over there. I think Amanda is HorseAngel05. I did win the muck the book pile giveaway, though.


  20. Amanda Says:

    Actually I’m HorseAngel05!!! I won, and already recieved my prize! Talk about fast shipping! :D
    (I THINK Gabrielle goes by HorseWhispers. Is that right, Gabrielle?)


  21. Mirriam Says:

    Just to let everyone know, starting tomorrow I’m taking a 30 day Cyberfast. I’ve been ignoring God lately, and I’m going to spend a month getting back to Him. :) So, I’ll look forward to you guys in thirty days! Please pray I can do this! :D Love you all!


  22. Gabrielle Says:

    Yes, that’s me Amanda.


  23. Angela Dorsey Says:

    Stephenie, I’m working on a new series and the name of the first book is Winter of the Crystal Dances. So far its coming along wonderfully. I hope you like this new series too, when you get a chance to read it.


  24. Amanda Says:

    What do you think your next HorseAngel bok will be about?


  25. Angela Dorsey Says:

    There’s only one more to come out and its already written and with the publisher. Its called Wolf Chasm - and after Wolf Chasm it looks like the series is over… waaa!


  26. Brittany Says:

    The horse angel series is over now? Awwww…. Well, that’s okay I know your next series will be just as great! ;)


  27. Amanda Says:

    What?! You’re ending the Horse Angel series?! *sniffles* That makes me so sad! Couldn’t you still write them, just not as often or something? I really love that series! It’s my all time favorite! Please, please, please, please, please, don’t stop writing Horse Angel books, Angela!
    :cry:


  28. Gabrielle Says:

    I can’t cry yet! I haven’t read all of the HA. When I’m finished with the series, we can commiserate :)


  29. Mirriam Says:

    I’M BACK WITH BAD NEWS! PLEASE EVERYONE, PRAY FOR MY MOM! SHE HAD TWO MASSIVE HEART ATTACKS YESTERDAY! SHE IS STABLE AND OK RIGHT NOW, BUT PLEASE PRAY FOR HER! Oh, and I’m temporarily off the cyberfast. Way 2 go, Amanda. :)


  30. Mirriam Says:

    Angela, when will the trivia contest winners be announced?!? Aren’t they like, 2 months behind?


  31. Anne-Line Says:

    Oh no! The Horse Angel series really is over? Oh, my sister is gonna cry her eyes out! She loved to listen to me reading them to her, and it was my favourite series in the ponyclub. It was almost the only reason I continued to be in it. My parents thinks I am a little old for it, but as long as you write books for the ponyclub, i will continue there. :)

    I wonder what happens to Angelica after the last book is over, but I am sure she always will be the Angel of Horses, and my inspiration of writing, so as all your books. It’s your deserve that I have become a better writer, and I know you will continue inspiring me. :D


  32. Angela Dorsey Says:

    I’m so sorry to hear about your mom, Mirriam. How is she doing? I hope she’s okay! Give her my best wishes, okay?

    I’ve been away the last couple of weeks, and things have been so busy. I went on a trip to visit my Grandmother, and now we’re working on moving! Its lots of fun and very exciting, but it keeps me very, very busy!!! And yes, the Trivia Contests are WAY behind! I’ll get to it and the new Our Story as soon as I can, I promise!

    Its so nice to hear that all of you will be missing the Horse Angel/Guardian books as well. I’m sad about it too. :( 

    I’m so happy to be your inspiration, Anne-Line! I feel so honoured!


  33. Amanda Says:

    So you’re really not gonna write Horse Angel books anymore? Maybe you could write about Angelica in one of the books in your new series. Like, make the main character and her horse be saved by Angelica or something? Anything would be better than nothing! :cry:
