This comic is from a series where we went to the UK for a comic festival last year (2025). #comicfestivaltravelogues #crochet #redpoppies

I believe that cat people are safe people. This comic is about a trip we took to the UK last year (November 2025). #comicfestivaltravelogues #britishshorthairs #catpeople

Today (Saturday September 12) I am in Iceland! At @siglufjordurcomicsfest in Siglufjörður! So come brave the snow (yes, snow) and say hi! As a reminder, this comic series is chronicling events from last year (2025),when we went to the UK. #comicfestivaltravelogues #makingfriends #meetingstrangers

Just a reminder that this comic series is chronicling our travels to the UK last year (2025). THIS YEAR we’re going to Iceland and will be at @siglufjordurcomicsfest this weekend (Sept 11-13). Come say hi! #comicfestivaltravelogues #americanintheuk #uktravels

I love visiting the non-touristy parts of a place! Like, for example, how I’ll be at (probably) the northern most comic festival in the world this Saturday! See you there? #comicfestivaltravelogues #britishrailway #offthebeatentrack

Reminder that this comic series is chronicling my trip last year (2025) to the UK. #comicfestivaltravelogues #britishrailways #delayedtrain

You ever buy something and it’s so far away that once you actually receive it it feels like it was free? Like preordering something that takes months to arrive or paying for concert tickets for next year? It’s fun, I like it. It feels like a gift. #comicfestivaltravelogues #traintravel

Traveling is chaos, but train traveling is the best. #comicfestivaltravelogues #englandtrip #traintravel

This comic series is about events that happened last year (2025) on our way to our first-ever comic festival. I felt like a kid starting at a new school. #comicfestivaltravelogues #makingfriends #newkid

Can you sleep on a plane? I just got myself one of those pillows that actually straps your head to the chair headrest to keep it in place while you sleep. I’ll be taking an overnight flight next month and I hope it works! #comicfestivaltravelogues #sleeponplane #redeyeflight

I was pleasantly surprised that I was allowed to bring my knitting needles onto the plane. But I did cart around a couple balls of wool and those needles on the entire trip and never ended up casting on. #comicfestivaltravelogues #longhaulflight #knittingonaplane

Btw though I realize it looks like I’m taking over the personal space of the person next to me, that seat was in fact empty. Also, I’ll be in Iceland in a month at @siglufjordurcomicsfest ! If you’re in the area come say hi! #comicfestivaltravelogues #longhaulflight #kevinschili

Have you HAD blackcurrant Skittles?? I wish I had some right now. They’re amazing! Check the comments to see a photo of me and my little brother. We probably had blackcurrant Skittles in our pockets in this photo. #comicfestivaltravelogues #blackcurrant #uktrip

I appreciate the way my parents put on a brave face to try to calm my little brother and I. #comicfestivaltravelogues #keepcalmandcarryon #neverforget

This is how me and my family found out about 9/11. Also, come see me today (Sunday August 9) in Cheshire, CT for @connecticomix at @counterweightbrewingco for a free family friendly comic fest! #comicfestivaltravelogues #wherewereyou #neverforget

Advance copies of Pilgrim’s book just came in and it looks amazing!! I can’t believe just how beautiful everything looks! #pilgrimthecat #advancereaderscopy #hardcover

The first time I was ever on a plane (that I can remember) was on September 10, 2001. Also: Come see me this Sunday August 9 at @connecticomix in Cheshire, CT for a free comic festival! #comicfestivaltravelogues #neverforget #familytrip

The events in this comic happened in early November 2025 (hence the first snow & tree sighting). Also: Come see me this Sunday (August 9) at @connecticomix in Cheshire, CT for a free family-friendly comic fest! #comicfestivaltravelogues #firstsnow #truckingtreesforchristmas

Spoiler: They sat us together, but in the middle seats. It was fine. And the plane didn’t go down. #comicfestivaltravelogues #pickyourseat #upcharge

The events in this comic happened last year (2025), and I never would have guessed that less than a year later I’d actually be attending a comic festival IN Iceland! #comicfestivaltravelogues #siglufjörður #comicfest

When your pros and cons list is equal. Reminder: The comics in this series are chronicling events that happened last year (2025). I will not be at Thought Bubble this year (sorry). #comicfestivaltravelogues #prosandcons #comicfestival

For context: We did once attempt to break the world record for preforming a music show in all of the 50 US states in the fastest amount of time, and then I illustrated a 300 page graphic novel about it in less than a year. So yeah, I wouldn’t say “smart choices” are our norm.

A reminder that the events in this series happened last year (2025). I did not apply to Thought Bubble this year and will not be attending (sorry). #comicfestivaltravelogues #acceptanceletter #comicfestival

Btw, this comic series is chronicling events that happened a year ago (2025). Things have changed for me since then, but I wanted to show a little of what it was like applying and getting rejected from so many events. #comicfestivaltravelogues #comicfestival #thoughtbubblefestival

Special thanks to @dcorsetto for commiserating with me about how frustrating getting rejected can be. And if you haven’t already, check out Danielle’s Pätrẽon! Eric & I show up in one of her recent daily comics! #comicfestivaltravelogues #rejectioncollection #comicfestival

Hello! I’m starting a new comic series! Now that the Pilgrim series has concluded I’ve decided to dive into another autobio series that I’ve been thinking about a lot: The difficulties of “breaking into” the comic festival circuit and dealing with *~rejection~*!

Demon fire cats command you come to a house show! Last night’s house show had 6 cats, so if you’re on a cat scavenger hunt, a house show is a great place to look! Tonight I’ll be painting live in Greenfield, MA with @pocketvinyl so come say hi!

Little inking process video for you of one of the new Pilgrim comics going into the upcoming book! And a reminder that Eric & I are heading out on tour this summer! (Don’t worry, our wonderful neighbors will be checking in on all three of our kitties daily while we’re away.)

The worst part of going away on tour is leaving the kitties. But the best part is how happy they are when we come home. Summer tour with @pocketvinyl.bsky.social starts next week! Come out, say hi, and tell me about your cats! #pilgrimthecat #eartipped #welcomeparty

I’m working on 20 bonus Pilgrim comics that will be in my upcoming book, and I may share a few in Pâtrêôn (we’ll see). Also! I’ve playing a few shows this weekend with my band @pocketvinyl Come say hi! And if you mention Pilgrim, I’ll give you a sticker! #pilgrimthecat #comicsketch #pencilsketch
