Anna DeStefano is a best-selling author of romantic suspense and paranormal romantic suspense for Harlequin, Silhouette, and Dorchester Publishing. She's a Romantic Times Reviewers Choice Award winner, winner of the Gayle Wilson Award of Excellence, and Past President Advisor for Georgia Romance Writers, a group of 300 authors that meets monthly in Atlanta, GA.

An honors graduate from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Anna worked in corporate IT for ten years, finally settling into a career as a Senior Tech Writer. But her imagination rules when it's time to let the planning go and write. The result: 11 award-winning novels published since 2004, and a half million copies of her books in print in over six different languages.

Her interactive workshops on the writing process, plotting through character, drafting, and rewriting, regularly attract standing room-only crowds at conferences, college seminars, and one-day workshops. Her series of communication workshops are the latest addition to her teaching resume, and they're quickly becoming the most requested of her programs.
