He is believed to have been raised in the scriptorium of a didactic monastery before touring the moors of Humbug near the coast of Hopping Frog with a traveling caravan of gypsies. He now illustrates for several publications through automated dispatch from a tower in Claggum Hall.

    “Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
    The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
    Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
    The frumious Bandersnatch!”

    He took his vorpal sword in hand:
    Long time the manxome foe he sought —
    So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
    And stood awhile in thought.

    PERFECT! I adore your take on Lewis Carroll’s characters!
