Sparkles like a glass of Devon cider on a summer afternoon.
Hannah was born and raised in Hampshire but on leaving school landed a job as an obituary writer/amateur dramatic reviewer for a Devon newspaper. The urge to travel was too strong, however, and she became an air stewardess, first with British Caledonian and then on private planes. Many adventures later she ended up in Los Angeles, where she met her future husband - but now they've moved to more rainy Oregon, which reminds her of home.
