About the Author John Hopkins applies his distinctly original perspective on ever-evolving technologies, current events, and pop culture--along with his keen interest in science fiction, conspiracy theories, paranormal, and urban myths--to the comic strips, short stories, and essays that are Lost Cactus. Contributor Bio: Hopkins, John P John Hopkins is the brains behind the "Lost Cactus" comic strip. He weaves an eclectic mix of topics-from sci-fi, paranormal, and technology-inspired content with on-trend cultural, political, and celebrity-focused news items, into off-beat short stories and acerbic commentaries. A professional illustrator, designer, writer, and proprietor of a successful design studio with a diverse clientele for more than 20 years, Hopkins draws upon his experience while crafting "Lost Cactus." His caffeine-fueled imagination-and gift for seeing the comically absurd in almost anything-provide the grist for his strip's plotlines and extensive backstory. As a life-long comic strip fan, he is proud to contribute "Lost Cactus" to this quintessentially American art form. He is a member of the Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA), the Southern California Independent Booksellers Association (SCIBA) and the Alliance of Independent Authors (ALLI).
