About me:
My new collection, SLOWPOKE: ONE NATION. OH MY GOD! will be out in April from Ig Publishing. It contains my best cartoons from the past few years, cartoon meta-commentary, and an intro by Ruben Bolling, creator of "Tom the Dancing Bug." You can get a discount if your order in advance from Amazon.

I draw the comic Slowpoke, which appears in altweeklies around the country. Slowpoke has also graced the pages of: LA Times, Ms. Magazine, Funny Times, The American Prospect, and CampusProgress.org.
Slowpoke is featured in Attitude: The New Subversive Political Cartoonists, edited by Ted Rall, and won first place in the 2005 Association of Alternative Newsweeklies Awards. Commentary on each week's strip is available on the SlowpokeBlog.
I also do freelance illustration for Nickelodeon Magazine and other publications.

Who I'd like to meet:
Fans and creators of cartoons, comics, art, and humor; political types; writers; reality-based humans.
Not that I have anything against musicians, but if you are one, please send me a convincing personal message explaining why you belong on my friends list so I know you're not just randomly pimping your Jackyl cover band. ANYTHING SMACKING OF BOTS WILL BE DENIED! Of course, if you feel I've dissed you unfairly, you are welcome to send me a message and convince me you're for real.
