J. L. Barnes (often known as @FishWithATopHat online) is a Colorado Springs-based multimedia artist and author. On Twitter and Instagram, she often enjoys being mistaken for a guy because of her ramblings on horror movies, videogames, and tabletop roleplaying (primarily Dungeons & Dragons).

Offline, she draws all kinds of things ranging from the inanely cute to the slightly creepy. Oh, and gentlemen animals. She draws a lot of gentleman animals... so many, in fact, that she has a storybook collection of them all!
