It all started with a branch or, more precisely, an owl on a branch. Or, even more precisely, a grouchy, self-opinionated, woodland commodity-dealing, self-important owl on a branch.
Then it grew into a community of owls on a branch. But then it went on growing: The Ant Patrol, The Killer Tree, The-Duck-on-the-Branch, The Athletic Spider.
And, sooner or later, someone or something had to leave the branch. The Owl’s peripatetic Cousin Jed saw to that – laid-back, laconic and something else beginning with ‘L’. Oh yes, lost. Jed couldn’t find a blade of grass in a prairie. He knows he’s reached his destination when he flies into a tall building. But his lack of navigational skills give the strip a dimension that can take the reader all over the world – although not necessarily back again.
And so Off The Branch was born, a small-town community just north of somewhere a little to the south. To Cousin Jed, of course, south is the direction you go when you follow a truck along the freeway. It never fails.
