# About me

Peter Chiykowski's an award-winning cartoonist, musician, writer and editor. He’s mostly known for Rock, Paper, Cynic, his webcomic that won the Aurora Award for Best Graphic Novel in 2014 and has shown up in Newsweek and George Takei's Facebook page. The HMS Bad Idea, Peter's first book of comics, now is available in places that will take your money and give you stupid cartoons instead. The book debuted at the #1 new graphic novel anthology on the Amazon international bestseller list. Huzzah!

When he's not making comics, Peter is usually writing new songs about grown-up things like having a crush on the National Security Agency or taking Netflix as a monogamous lover.

By day Peter writes and edits for international charity Free The Children, producing educational resources for thousands of schools and youth groups. He's written charity-focused content for newspapers like the Seattle Times, San Francisco Herald, Vancouver Sun and Ottawa Citizen.

By night Peter wears too many hats, spends time with his fiancee and wrangles two unruly basset hounds.

Thank you for so many faves! It's nice to see you around and posting again ^^. I can imagine how busy you probably are, though - I myself only just got into winter break but I'm feeling too lethargic to actually do anything with my free time Sweating a little... . Happy holidays to you!

I've read all comic entries on Rock, Paper, Cynic.

I'm now incapable of watching the local politics without imagining what caption would be better.
