If you enjoy fiction audiobooks, especially when they’re free ;-), don’t miss the special offer I’ll mention a few paragraphs below.<\/p>\n

Everyone knows that Stephanie Bond is one of the most talented and prolific romance novelists around, but did you know she started out as a computer programmer? And despite her impressive academic credentials, she’s never had any formal training in writing.
\n\"bond\"<\/a>
\nFifteen years ago, after attending college on a presidential scholarship, Stephanie was deep into a career in systems engineering and working on her MBA at night school. When one of her instructors remarked on her flair for writing, Stephanie began writing a romance novel in her spare time. Two years later, she sold her first manuscript to Harlequin.<\/p>\n

Stephanie sold 10 more titles before deciding to leave her corporate job and devote her full attention to writing. Today, with more than 60 novels already published, she’s continuing a sexy mystery series for Mira Books called Body Movers. <\/em>The series is Stephanie’s favorite project because she enjoys its combination of dark humor with mystery and a bit of romance. Sony Pictures recently optioned Body Movers<\/em> for development as a TV series.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile Stephanie continues writing romantic comedies for Harlequin. A native of eastern Kentucky, she now lives in midtown Atlanta, but considers the whole city as her “office.” She often writes on her laptop at Atlanta’s Piedmont Park, in coffee shops, and sometimes even on the subway.<\/p>\n

Today’s top Buffet pick is Party Crashers<\/em>, a romantic mystery Stephanie published with Avon in 2004.<\/p>\n
