Tom says a comic strip idea, complete with setting and cast of characters, came to him unbidden 56 years ago. Since then he has shared it with others with some publishing success. He even had an opportunity to have an audience with Charles Schulz, creator of "Peanuts" who said he actually liked Tom's work!
