“Lake Life” is an original comic strip by local writer/artist and Gazette contributor Craig Howard featuring Liberty Lake themes, history and characters. It features the adventures of the Liberté family – dad Jake, mom Peg, daughter Claire, son Satchel and dog Dwight. No one is quite sure if they live north or south of Sprague Avenue but they love Liberty Lake.
Craig Howard began his writing career in grade school as the author of a retrospective on the 1978-79 NBA Champion Seattle SuperSonics. Since earning a degree in Journalism from the University of Oregon, Craig has written professionally since 1997 and worked for newspapers like the Goldendale Sentinel, Spokane Valley News Herald, Liberty Lake Splash and Greater Spokane Valley Current. He has also been a contributing writer for the Seattle Times and Northwest Runner magazine and had editorial cartoons published by the Spokesman-Review.
