Amelia GraceAmelia Grace is the pen name of Julieann Wallace, a bestselling multi-published author whose #8wordstory was chosen by the Queensland Writers Centre to be featured on the back of their business cards in 2018. She resides in Australia, and was diagnosd with the incurable (for now) Meniere's disease in 1995. In her quest to defeat the violent unpredictable vertigo, profound hearing loss, and relentless, impossibly loud tinnitus, she chose to have her balance cells destroyed in 2004 to stop the vertigo, relearning to walk again. In 2020, Julieann regained her hearing with the gift of a cochlear implant. Prior to her career as a writer, Julieann was an educator with Education Queensland (Australia) for 25 years, and was nominated twice for the National Excellence in Teaching Awards. She now teaches in the Arts Faculty at a Secondary School, encouraging students to use the Arts to be changemakers, and a voice for others through use of the power of written words and visual art. Julieann is a self-confessed tea ninja, chocoholic, and papercut survivor, and tries not to scare her cat, Claude Monet, with her terrible cello playing. Read More Read Less
