Happy Holidays People,
We are kicking off our Holiday Hiatus episodes with the incredible writing team of Breakfield and Burkey. Dianne specifically chose this show as part of our memorial tribute to Rox Burkey who we lost in 2025. She was an incredible woman, as you will hear in this episode, and a real loss to the writing community.
Charles Breakfield, as the CTO of the Enigma Series, leverages his decades of technology expertise, including security, networking, voice, and anything digital, to bring innovative technothriller elements into storytelling. He has deep knowledge of World War II history, has traveled extensively, and seeks cultural exchanges to learn what makes different people tick. Charles enjoys wine tasting, winemaking, Harley riding, cooking new recipes, and woodworking.
Rox Burkey, as the COO of the Enigma Series, uses her extensive professional knowledge of optimizing technology and business investments to drive stellar customer experiences into the ongoing stories of the Enigma Series. Characteristics of people she has met over her career are woven into their stories. Rox enjoys her family, friends, puppies, reading, reviewing books, and traveling whenever possible. Meeting readers at various events is one of her favorite pastimes.
Breakfield and Burkey have created award-winning stories that resonate with men and women, with a fresh perspective on technology possibilities within a fictional framework. They pen The Enigma Series and the Enigma Heirs Series, and cozy mysteries with the Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles (MBCC).
Subscribe to our podcast now and be ready for Season 5 beginning Feb. 4, 2026.
Enjoy,
Dianne
