My name is Jessica. I live in Austin, Texas. I'm in my mid-20's and I have two cats: Fluffy Kitty and Stimpy. I didn't name either of them, but that's a whole story on its own. I've spent my whole life in this city, so I'm not really a worldly person at all, but I DO NOT have a southern accent. There's not much to say about me... I graduated high school, took a few college courses, and ended up working in the customer service department for a local cable company, where I deal with my customers face to face on a daily basis. I am bitter towards the human race just like any good customer service girl should be.
Lame. Lame. Lame.
How'd I get to be here on DD?
I'm really Amanda's roommate and comic-helper. The whole comic is her idea, world and story. About once a week, she'll come to me all pumped up about some ideas she's got for the comic and I'll listen to them and then put in my input. Somehow, we'll both go on some sort of tangent where we live in the make-believe world of Salt the Holly and play god with all the little characters. That's so fun.
I'm more of an illustrator than a writer, so you probably won't see me write many comics, or if you do, they'll probably be short lived. Though, I do feel guilty for not having a comic of my own. Maybe I'll be inspired at some point. Who knows?
Salt the Holly is a great outlet for me. In the real world, I don't get much of an opportunity to play with my artistic talent so it's really nice to be able to exercise my skills here. It's also fun to assist and see Amanda get better in her own skills. She's come a long way over the years and has had the best improvements since joining Drunk Duck. You'll probably notice just how much she's improved in some of her bonus links she'll post on occasion.
I wonder how things are going to progress. Life's pretty hectic around here, and we're planning on moving in a few months... I guess you'll just have to keep reading the comic and see.

...Okay, I just read the comment Amanda wrote on me AFTER I wrote all this nice stuff about her. So, to all you readers out there: Ignore all the nice stuff about her. She is a jerk and I'm going make her bathroom APPLE scented! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!
