'''D. E. Stevenson''' ([[1892]]- [[1973]]) es una escritora escocesa, autora de novelas románticas. Era hija del ingeniero [[David Alan Stevenson]], primo del novelista [[Robert Louis Stevenson]].
D.E. Stevenson was born in 1892 in [[Edinburgh]], Scotland, and was educated at home by governesses. She started to write at eight, but because her parents and governesses disapproved she had to do this in secret. She later wanted to go to university but her father refused, concerned about having an educated woman in the family. Stevenson was married in 1916 to a captain in the 6th Ghurkha Rifles.<ref>http://www.dalyght.ca/DEStevenson/smitharticle.pdf</ref>

==Inter book links==
Miss Buncle spills into ''The Four Graces'' as well as ''Spring Magic'', and her book is described in "Anna and her Daughters". ''Celia's House'' inspired ''Listening Valley'', where Celia makes a re-appearance. We hear of her again during ''Anna and Her Daughters''. Anna pops up briefly in the Katherine books which link with ''Charlotte Fairlie'' (Mr. Heath the vicar makes a re-appearance this time). Later Sarah Morris ends up in Ryddelton in ''Sarah's Cottage'' to be befriended by Debbie (who made her debut in ''Celia's House'') and to hear about Tonia (''Listening Valley'') and Charlotte Fairlie.
More links exist from the Katherine books, via Mr Sandford the lawyer, to ''House on the Cliff'' which links via Miss Martineau the landlady to ''The Blue Sapphire''. The Katherine books also tell us more about MacAslan who we first meet in ''Smouldering Fire''. Stevenson's last book, ''The House of the Deer'' (a reworking of a serial published in The Glasgow Bulletin in 1936) revisits the MacAslan family in the second generation, and is a sequel to "Gerald and Elizabeth".
''Gerald and Elizabeth'' enter into the saga around Drumburly and re-introduce Freda from ''Five Windows''. Jock from the ''Music in the Hills'' trilogy also knows of Freda. Bel Lamington links into these books. Bel's friend Margaret was a Musgrave and there are links from ''The Musgraves'' to ''The Tall Stranger'' which was a sequel (of sorts) to Five Windows (though Stevenson, uncharacteristically makes an error between the two books - in "Five Windows" the main character is David Kirke, in "The Tall Stranger" his name is spelled Kirk). The Musgraves give a tenuous link back to Ryddelton via the Mulberry Coach, a story written by one of Anna's daughters and nearly performed by Delia Musgrave.
The ''Amberwell'' books link closely to ''Still Glides the Stream'' which in turn ties in with the Sarah books, in that Will and Sarah both visit Nivennes and meet with the Delormes family, although their visits are many years apart.
Books Within Books:
Another recurring character is the author [[Janetta Walters]], whose light romantic novels are either loved or loathed by Stevenson characters. We first hear of her books in ''Mrs. Tim Carries On'' and ''Spring Magic''. She appears in person in ''The Two Mrs. Abbotts'' and ''The Four Graces''.
