I write fiction and poems (and sometimes draw comics) in Toronto.
I went to school in Toronto and in Wisconsin and for a little while in Southern California.
I recently finished a novel about a 17 year old girl who hangs out with a 1970s New York punk semi-legend and whose friends believe the world is ending.

<h1>One day I will move the comics from my published works list and also scan unpublished comics and put them all on this one page. That day is not today. But it is soon.</h1>
