Author Biography

Elaine Stirling has been a "professional" writer since 1985, by virtue of having sold the first of ten Harlequin romances in that year. Five of those were romantic suspense because she loves a good mystery as much as a good love story. In subsequent years, while attempting to write a godawfully serious and tragic historical nonentity, she sold short fiction to Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine and Fantasy and Science Fiction. To keep food on the table, she became a corporate communication consultant and ended up quite enjoying that too. Her first nonfiction book, The Corporate Storyteller: A Writing Manual & Style Guide for the Brave New Business Leader, was published in 2009. A friend in Tokyo told Elaine a great story about a woman reading her book in a stall in the ladies' rest room and laughing her head off. She emerged to find Japanese women staring at her, horrified. The world learns better with humour, Elaine believes.
