Behold, the autobiographical comics I’ve been making off and on since 2005. I used to call them my Emo Comics. Some are serious, some are silly. Some of them are about me as a toddler, some of them are about being a parent, but most of them fall somewhere in between. Basically I am extremely awkward and incapable of being happy, but maybe my dumb misfortunes and insecurities will make you chuckle.
I am mostly focusing on producing stuff in print these days, but here are some samples of recent pieces. To get the full stories, go here or here.
From the Shaving story (for lack of a better title), 2026
From Smoke, 2026
From For Nora, 2026
From Idlewild, 2026
Some random pages from 2023 onward:
Old Stuff
Thesis Comics
I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in creative writing in 2008. My thesis project was a collection of personal essays, half of them done in comic form. I was the first person at my school to make comics as part of the writing program.
Anyway, you can click below to read each story:
Roller Skates: A cheesy children’s novel set in the 1890s spurs me to become a librarian.
Senior Pictures: Trials and tribulations of an ugly teenager sitting for their senior pictures, ha ha.
Confirmation: My experience as someone who attended Catholic school, but didn’t really buy into organized religion.
The Mall: About my obsession with old shopping malls.
Shorties: Single-page comics and false starts that didn’t make the final cut. My Laura Ingalls Wilder costume, getting day drunk at the beach with my dad, etc.
Emo Comics
A whole bunch of single-page comics. The page formatting on Webtoon doesn’t really work for this material, so I’m reproducing them here, too. I made a ton of these, but many of them are too embarrassing to put here.
