L. Skinner is a retail flunky from the foggy expanse of San Francisco
who childhood ambition was to be the best writer and "drawer" ever, yet
she didn't realize that making comics might be up her alley until midway
through college. One 24 hour comic later, and the addiction was complete.
She now enjoys studying small moments of her daily life and translating
them into black and white panels that can be shared with other people.
Her work can be seen at www.mysky.net or in the new "The Girls' Guide to
Guys' Stuff" anthology published by Friends of Lulu.
