Buzzy Lady #1 Joy Poger is the CEO & Co-Founder of Buzzy Multimedia Publishing. Please note than the last name is P-O-G-E-R not R-O-G-E-R although if you are Dreamworks or an exceptionally interesting individual I am sure she would let that sort of mistake slide. As much a Queens girl as Geraldine Ferraro or Nancy Reagan she is also an alumni of the same school that gave us such diverse people as Captain Kangaroo (Bob Keeshan), Jerry Springer, Simon & Garfunkel, Stan Lee and The Ramones…all of them. Leaving tenured teaching positions behind where she was adored and underpaid as all teachers are she decided to get in touch with her inner geek, throw all caution to the wind and founded Buzzy Multimedia Publishing. Anyone who can turn 30 undisciplined American kids into a functioning working unit with a look and a single line can handle the toughest of business situations.

    The publisher’s summaries of both series sound very intriguing and I’m looking forward to the audio book versions. Are there any actors in mind for the readers of these novels? James Marsters was an excellent choice for Jim Butcher’s “The Dresden Files.” Though I do wonder why the audio books for that series are being recorded out of order.

    This looks like an interesting series, I will have to try it. I haven’t read anything by Patricia Briggs yet, and this series looks like a good place to start. I’m just getting into audio books and enjoying them as well, so far I’ve listened to the first couple of The Dresden Files books and ordered the third. They are very nicely done.
