The Personal Skinny: I was born and raised in Dorset, England. While I was editing medical text and working in London's Harley Street, I met my husband, an officer in the American Air Force, at a party. He asked me to dance (The Mexican Hat Dance) and we've been together ever since.

I get a lot of questions about England and whether I still have strong feelings for the country where I was born. Usually my answer is something like this, "I'll always believe I've been very lucky to live in America and I wouldn't live anywhere else by choice, but do I get homesick? You bet. The climate here in the Pacific Northwest is similar to that in many parts of England. As seasons change I can become very pensive. When the scents of autumn and fallen leaves are in the air, I see Hyde Park. Winter rain reminds me of being in some small Cotwolds town, and ducking into a tea shop for a hot cuppa! In spring I am once again in an English cottage garden shere a wak sun shines on new flower, and summer takes me to Weymouth, my hometown, and the sea. Those sensations can make me cry before I remember to smile." Of course, it's only the need to research the next book that takes me home every couple of years...

Stella and her husband live in Seattle, Washington. They are the parents of a son and two daughters, one of whom is married. And Stella and Jerry are "absolutely dotty and doting" grandparents for the first time.
