About Stella
Stella Preissler is a girl with a mermaid's soul. At the age of 9, competitive swimming became her passion. She qualified and competed at AAU Nationals during her teen years, placing in the top 10 nationally.
As an adult she coached age-group swimmers for over a decade, and at US Masters Nationals she earned 5 gold medals and recognition as an All-American Masters Swimmer. She was part of approximately 6 national record-setting relays and contributed to a world record-setting relay.
If she is not in the pool or at Lake Chelan, you can find her writing novels steeped in history, love, and the enduring strength of women.
