Stella Duffy height - How tall is Stella Duffy?

Duffy was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2016 Birthday Honours for services to the arts.

On 18 April 2015, Duffy spoke at one of the early meetings of a new political party, the Women's Equality Party.

Duffy has written sixteen novels – nine literary novels published by Virago and Sceptre, and five crime novels in the Saz Martin series, published by Serpent's Tail. In 2018 HarperCollins Publishers released Money in the Morgue by Ngaio Marsh and Stella Duffy. The book was started by Marsh during World War II, but abandoned. Working with just the book's title, first three chapters and some notes—but no idea of the plot or motive of the villain—Duffy completed the novel, which has received widespread praise for its authenticity and seamless transition between the two authors' work.
