Jo Grix
Biography
Born in Huntsville, Texas, Jo found her stimulation through writing and reading from a young age. In a town where the big excitements were movies and bowling, she filled notebooks, and later Word documents with stories of places she wanted to visit, or that she dreamed up.
As to Jo herself, she's not the most exciting individual, she saves that for her heroes and heroines.

Heaven is High and the Emperor Far Away, a Play
on Nov. 14, 2013
This play is an amazing look into China, a country that most schools gloss over in their textbooks, and a time period where most teachers talk about other things. It's a two act play that manages to convey in dialogue the events of two different days in the life of a shopkeeper, his family, and the people who come to his tea shop. It also allows you an idea of what was actually going on in China in the early twentieth century. Heaven is High and the Emperor Far Away is a play that should be shared more, either performed or read aloud. I recommend it for people who like plays, or like China, or just really want to read something good.
