Emma Capps is a pretty typical webcartoonist except for one thing: she hasn't graduated from high school yet. Her series "The Chapel Chronicles" is an all-ages strip that tells of the adventures and fantastic imaginings of Chapel Smith, a Lady Gaga-obsessed 11 year-old with a fondness for elaborate headwear and a pet hedgehog named Rupert who tends to sit on top of her head.

Emma T Capps has written and illustrated an account of gathering cherry plum fruit "Jam Days," which also includes a recipe for cherry plum jam: www.chapelchronicles.com.

This is probably the most obscure and interesting reference to my comic art, Jam Days. The story involves gathering cherry plum fruit from local trees in my hometown of San Carlos, but I also noticed many cherry plum trees at Stanford University last summer while attending EPGY.

Now this little girl was the cutest, sweetest person at the show with the best rehearsed pitch EVER. She came up, introduced herself as Emma T. Capps, explained to me that she is a 14 year old cartoonist who had the Gold Medal at the 2011 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. She then asked if she could give me a submission of comics, buttons and postcards. As if the poise and moxie aren't enough, she is a damn fine cartoonist in her own right. We will be hearing much more from Emma.

Capps, a 14-year old, award-winning author, artist, and creator of The Chapel Chronicles, an on-line & print comic that details the wildly silly antics of an 11-year old girl named Chapel Smith.....
