She lives in the heart of wine country where the scenery, weather and people are so perfect locals don't like to brag for fear the entire world will move to Sonoma and spoil the small town atmosphere. Meta joins the long list of artists, writers, film-makers, chefs, gardeners and philosophers who live in the Valley of the Moon, fertile ground for growing in creativity and contentment. Meta's work appears regularly in the Sonoma Sun's Fine Art Section. Her work was published in the anthology Cry of the Nightbird and her family tales appear in Stories for Emma available on Amazon.  Meta's first novel, Saving El Chico was released in January, 2016. From the owners of Ed's Salvage Yard and Golf Course to the Be Lovely Boutique, citizens of the small west Texas town of El Chico band together in order to survive and flourish in the twenty-first century. A devastating drought appears to be the final blow to the community and Bea McPherson's Circle McP Ranch. Taking advantage of the situation, a fast-talking Dallas businessman joins with the local mayor to swindle the residents. They don't count on the unwavering devotion to the land and shrewdness of the female rancher aided by Jake, a cowboy who was born a hundred years too late, and Silver Crow, the Great-Grandson of Quanah Parker, noble chief of the Comanche nation."},{"label":"Search SCL Digital Archives for this Author","value":["Strauss, Meta"]},{"label":"Search Author or Book in Library Catalog","value":"Search for works by Meta Strauss in the <a href=\"https://find.sonomalibrary.org/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=%22Strauss%2C+Meta%22&te=&rt=false%7C%7C%7CAuthor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">library catalog</a>"},{"label":"Author Website","value":"View <a href=\"https://metawatch.blogspot.com/ \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">personal or professional website</a> for Meta Strauss"},{"label":"Search Author in Open Library","value":"Search for works by Meta Strauss in <a href=\"https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=Strauss+Meta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Open Library</a>"},{"label":"Author's Place(s) of Residence","value":["Sonoma"]},{"label":"Sort Title","value":"Meta Strauss"},{"label":"Significant Title","value":"Saving El Chico"},{"label":"Digital Archives Identifier","value":"meta_strauss"},{"label":"Digital Archives Collection Name(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Date Added","value":"2016/04/22"},{"label":"Filename","value":"meta_strauss.jpg"},{"label":"Title","value":"Meta Strauss"},{"label":"Item Type","value":["Text"]},{"label":"Item Format or Genre","value":["Biography files","Bibliographies","Portraits","Photographs"]},{"label":"Search SC Local Arts for this Author or Artist","value":"<a href=\"https://digital.sonomalibrary.org/documents?filter_363=meta_strauss&applyState=true\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Meta Strauss</a>"},{"label":"Collection(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Author Name (Controlled)","value":["Meta Strauss"]}],"description":"Meta Strauss","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/15ffe5bb-3e5c-4825-b649-6a7853bd3318/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"Meta Strauss","height":450,"width":450,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/15ffe5bb-3e5c-4825-b649-6a7853bd3318/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/15ffe5bb-3e5c-4825-b649-6a7853bd3318","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":512,"scaleFactors":[1]}]},"height":450,"width":450},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/15ffe5bb-3e5c-4825-b649-6a7853bd3318/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/15ffe5bb-3e5c-4825-b649-6a7853bd3318/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/15ffe5bb-3e5c-4825-b649-6a7853bd3318/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/logo"}
