Snow Sez "... by T. Shepherd
Snow is an extremely wise cat, so much so that he is considered a guru by the animals who travel far and wide seeking his wisdom. Although he tries to maintain his Zen-like demeanor, it can sometimes be a bit of a struggle as he juggles his feisty tabby cat wife, 13 rambunctious kittens, a critical mother-in-law and an overzealous next-door neighbor, Winky the dachshund. Luckily, Snow tries to seek nirvana each day by meditating, sleeping and eating lots of fish!
Shepherd was born and raised in Arizona and has been drawing since before she can remember. Growing up, her big dream was to be an animator, because she wanted to make her characters come to life. As she grew older, she became fascinated with the idea of making stories come to life. Eventually, that led Shepherd to creating comic strips, in which she could blend both worlds together.
When she's not creating comics, and when time affords it, Shepherd enjoy traveling, watching comedies, painting, writing and reading. However, her favorite thing to do is spend time with family.
Stone Soup Classics by Jan Eliot
Stone Soup Classics takes you back to where it all began! Relive the heartwarming, hilarious and relatable family adventures of the Stone clan as we jump back in time and restart the comic strip from the very beginning.
Jan Eliot began cartooning when she was a single mom trying to raise two daughters, stay fully employed, pay the bills and still have a little fun once in a while. Running for five years in 10 weekly and monthly papers, her first comic strip, Patience and Sarah, featured a single mom and her daughter. Eliot continued cartooning while working as a copywriter and graphic designer and developed a second strip called Sister City, which ran weekly in the Eugene, Oregon, Register-Guard for five years. In 1995, Eliot created Stone Soup. Eliot works from her home studio in Eugene. She has remarried, and her two daughters are grown with families of their own. Outside of cartooning, Eliot enjoys traveling and photography.

Chris Grine is an Eisner-nominated comic creator who has been making comics professionally since 2005. When he isn't writing or illustrating, he spends his time with his wife and kids, and watches more cartoons than any adult should ever admit to.
