Making Snowcones

My name is Christopher Stuck. I am the Chief Copy Editor. If that's not ringing any bells, I was the one with the big red beard. For the record, I do prefer "Christopher," but I will also accept "Crash." "Chris" makes my skin crawl.

About Me:

I am not a 4.0 student, though I was for one summer semester in community college. Instead, I am a 3.66 student after last quarter. I am a senior Literary Studies major, with minors in Spanish and Linguistics. I have two years left at Eastern, as I am taking my time and padding out my schedule with minors. Squishing all of the needed Literary Studies classes into two years was possible, but very likely miserable. Previously, I earned my Associate of Arts degree at Front Range Community College in Fort Collins, CO.

In 2001, while I was attending the University of Northern Colorado, where I majored variously in Graphic Design, Computer Information Systems (Online Media), and Journalism / Mass Communications, I interned at the Greeley Tribune as a line editor and doing the wire layout. The Tribune's website is available here: http://www.greeleytribune.com/ It is a sad, poorly done paper, in my opinion, especially sad because of its status as the paper for a city named after Horace Greeley.

This summer, I am working on my novel, a young adult book entitled Grandfather Klaus. I will be relaunching my daily webcomic, "Chocolate Shoes," at http://www.chocolateshoes.net/ , which has sadly fallen by the wayside due to school. I am also currently developing a steampunk comic with a Sherlock Holmes flavor, as well as designing t-shirts featuring things like a velociraptor in a jetpack.

This week, I have been obsessing over comics (especially the news that DC will be relaunching their entire line of books in September) and searching for a job.
