Welcome to GRUMBLES AND GRINS, by Karen Bessey Pease. I'm a Maine native. I am a wife, mother of three, freelance writer and newspaper columnist--and author of three Young Adult novels, the Grumble Bluff series. I've also co-authored two Writers' Tag novels, Bee Dazzle and Following Seas. In GAG, I'll share stories of life in the western mountains of Maine, and occasionally, my perspective on contemporary issues. Please join in, have fun and visit often. Kaz
