About
My name is Michael Wardner. I was born and raised in California but now I live just outside of Atlanta, Georgia, in a very small town called Pine Lake. I love to draw and write stories. I have won recognition for my cartoons from the SF Weekly and for my short story writing from Creative Loafing Atlanta. I love to do improv comedy and hang out with my wife, two kids, and cat (I'm not sure the cat enjoys it as much as I do.)
