Mike Angley Op-Ed Article in Security Director News

Posted on October 13, 2009 by admin

I’m honored that my recent opinion-editorial piece was carried by the Security Director News online and print newspaper. I’ve been amazed at how many fine publications have been carrying my perspective on transitioning from the military to a civilian career, particularly careers in the security industry.

Please visit the site and read the article.

Mike Angley Op-Ed Article on CareerPoliceOfficer.Com

Posted on October 3, 2009 by admin

I’m on a roll these days as far as publishing opinion-editorials and engaging in Q&A sessions with online magazines! I recently wrote an editorial on military transitions for CareerPoliceOfficer.com, nearly identical to the one I did for MilitaryDegree.com (see previous post). In this latest one titled, Transition from Active Military Service to the Private Sector, I discussed my own transition challenges, as well as what I typically saw others go through before I let the service. I hope you take some time to check out the article!

Posted on October 2, 2009 by admin

Here’s the program for the Military Writers Society of America’s (MWSA) Annual Conference in Orlando, Florida which I will attend from October 9 – 10, 2009. I will formally receive the Silver Medal for Fiction from the 2009 Annual Award program — a HUGE honor for me!

The MWSA has asked for some support in voting for the People’s Choice Awards. Here’s the appeal from MWSA’s President, Joyce Faulkner:

“Please encourage your friends to vote for the People’s Choice Finalists — 1 Vote per person. The Finalists are: Mindy Phillips Lawrence, Jack L. Wells, James Jellerson, Jerry Yellin, Bonnie Bartel Latino, John Cathcart, Marlyce Stockinger and Jeff Senour & CTS. Their work is in the Program and on our site. Most of them have recorded their work and that’s on the site as well. Be sure to encourage folks to listen to their performances as well as read the words. Also, encourage your contacts to forward the request to everyone they know — and ask everyone to they know to forward it on. Our goal is 1 Million votes by 5pm October 10th. The winner will be announced at the Awards Banquet later that evening.”

Mike Angley, Henley-Putnam University Professional Wins Prestigious Literary Award

Posted on October 1, 2009 by admin

I do consulting and public relations work for Henley-Putnam University in San Jose, California. When I recently won the Silver Medal for Fiction from the Military Writers Society of America, the university promoted it with a great press release. You can find it on PRWeb as well as Yahoo News.

Here’s an excerpt:

San Jose, CA (PRWEB) October 1, 2009 — Henley-Putnam University Public Relations Officer Mike Angley’s mystery/thriller debut novel, Child Finder, received the Silver Medal in the Fiction category in the 2009 Military Writers Society of America’s Annual Awards program. He will attend the MWSA’s annual conference in Orlando, FL from October 9 – 10 to receive this prestigious honor.

Each year the MWSA judges numerous submissions in several literary categories and selects the best for award of gold and silver medals, with one or two additional runners-up. Angley’s novel received the Silver Medal in the Fiction category for the highly-competitive 2009 MWSA program (http://militarywriters.com/2009Awards.html).

Angley Attends Southern Independent Booksellers Alliance (SIBA) Trade Show

Posted on September 29, 2009 by admin

I attended the Southern Independent Booksellers Alliance (SIBA) Trade Show at the Carolina First Center in Greenville, South Carolina from September 25 – 27, 2009. It was a great event, very well organized, and I had the opportunity to meet and network with many professionals in the publishing industry.

I was there with my publisher, TotalRecall Publications, Inc, a Houston-based publishing house. I signed several advance review copies of my forthcoming second novel, Child Finder: Resurrection, as well as sample softcovers of my first novel, Child Finder.

Here are some pictures…enjoy!
