Healer (18 page)
Authors: Peter Dickinson
In 1990 Peter was asked to give a talk at a conference in Boston and arranged to take advantage of the free Atlantic flights by seeing various people in New York the following week. Vastly underestimating the distances involved, he invited himself to stay with Robin McKinley, author of
The Red Magician
, in Maine for the intervening weekend. The result was like a car accident, changing lives. Within ten days of his return, they had arranged by telephone that she would lease her house and come and live with him in England. They married on January 3, 1991.
Peter and Robin love traveling with their dogs. They have often explored the outer fringes of the British Isles, taking the dogs with them.
Peter's wonderful family during Christmas in 2002.
In 2009 Peter was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire for services to children's literature in the Queen's birthday honors list.
Peter currently resides in southern England with Robin. He now has six grandchildren.
