I believe in the saying, "Not all who wander are lost." Born in Seattle, I moved with my family many times before we settled in Indianapolis, and after graduating from Wheaton College near Chicago with a teaching degree in physical education, I continued my peripatetic lifestyle. First came five years in the Black Forest of Germany as a dorm assistant in a Canadian boarding school, followed by working as a learning disabilities therapist in Indpls. Working as a nanny in NYC came next, succeeded by two winters in St. Thomas, USVI. Then began a stretch in retail and restaurant work in Indpls., Gatlinburg, TN, and Littleton, NH. Buena Vista, Colorado called next 2007, where enjoyed the mountain views and wonderful people, discovered pickleball and community theater, and served on the schoolboard. I now reside in Locust Grove, VA. Over the years, I have traveled extensively, including visiting Japan, Lebanon, and much of the US and Europe. My novel, "The Death and Life of Sherlock Holmes", is self-published under the pen name Grace Best-Page. My goodness, that all sounds rather formal and bland, so to spice it up, I have also worked in the art department of an independent film, found the body of a murder victim, once received a personal and handwritten reply from Dr. Oliver Sacks, helped move 38 cats and 7 dogs to FL, stood at the foot of Mt. Fuji without actually seeing it, and speak fluent Klingon. Only one of those things isn't true. Hint-it's the last one.
