Hi, I'm Maury Brown, a writer, designer, and small business owner. In 2019, I somewhat irreverently founded Hokum & Snark as a place to park my sarcasm, puns, and whimsy. To the surprise of my queer and quirky heart, my designs have found an audience, mostly in enamel pins, stickers and earrings. So here I am, with the help of some friends, trying something softer, squishier, and more huggable than sticky, pricky items -- though this one still has (pretend) sharp bits. It's a cactus cat, after all.
