About the author

When I'm not publishing wonderful stories written and drawn by fantastic creators, I am writing and collaborating on stories from my imagination that I want to share with readers.

You'll find me over at http://www.renegadeartsentertainment.... most of the time, as well as instagram https://www.instagram.com/alexanderfi...

Currently working on the follow-up to When Big Bears Invade with Nyco Rudolph, as well as Bloodlight with Al Davison (need to get past the writers block and get this one finished, sorry Al!) and Sand, a novel.

An eclectic collection in style and approach to the subject matter of Home. But almost all have beautiful impact. A delight to read.

“What is a home?” ask the editors of this anthology of Alberta comics—a book created from the deluge of responses they got to a call for comics and graphic stories that are “quintessentially Albertan.” The explorations of home in this colourful, polyphonic book are by turns surprising, sad, funny, shocking and even heartwarming. More than that, from Teresa Wong’s mapping of Chinatown, to Derek Evernden’s several contributions, to Shannon M. Reeves’s story about surviving downtown during COVID, and much more, Alberta Comics is a demonstration of the abundance of talent in this province.
