So the END of the WORLD was kind of a letdown . . . I had been anticipating this for two decades . Rather than let disappointment win , I decided I would continue on . I spent the month of December working overtime at Disney and sneeking in spare moments towards my Snarky the Elf 2012 Christmas Story where I could .

I chose to broaden my Snarky Universe this year , creating ALL NEW sets to tell the story , add NEW CHARACTERS and in general let my inspiration lead me where it wished . What ensued was beyond my wildest imagination - it was cathartic artistically .

During the month of December I built THREE sets - Santa's Living room , the Entrance to his Home , and the Workshop . The " Snarky Christmas story I wrote ended up requiring 84 panels ( about 16 pages ) that were shot and lettered in FIVE days . I was in " the zone " . The story was met with universal ( if miniscule ) applause .

The reception was such , that I decided that to keep Snarky to myself and my " inner circle " was unfair to Snarky the Elf , I would need to make her MORE accessible . To that end I have commenced work on the OFFICIAL Snarky the Elf website .

It promises to be an interesting NEW YEAR !!
